Regular charity drive on Zappon website

Each week, its database is emailed with details of causes close to the team's collective heart that are being supported the following Saturday and further encourages members to donate directly via the website.

Every cent generated during the course of the day goes directly to the charity or organisation that administers that particular cause. As an additional contribution, the company absorbs all the internal costs accrued, making it a simple, fast and very cost-effective method to generated much-needed funds for worthy causes.

Beneficiaries

• Driving William - an organisation that assists William Smith, a 12 year old double arm amputee, on his miraculous journey of rehabilitation after losing his arms in an electrocution;
  
• Southern Africa Sustainable Development Initiative (SASDI) Homestead - utilised funds received to complete the construction of a child and youth care centre in Khayelitsha on the outskirts of Cape Town;
  
• Bobs 4 Good Safety Shoes - an organisation co-founded by former Springbok rugby player Bob Skinstad, which works tirelessly at providing quality school shoes to South Africa children in rural areas;
  
• Abalimi-Harvest of Hope Initiative - supports micro- and township micro-farmers in the Western Cape.

"To be in a position to be able to come to the aid of countless communities across the country is the least the company can do as a responsible corporate citizen," explains GM of Avusa Media Live, Derek Abdinor. "It is extremely rewarding to see the benefits that Zappon GoodWorks provides and we will continue do what we can with the technology we have at our disposal."
