Tekkie Tax

Tekkie Tax is an annual fundraising campaign for a large mix of carefully selected welfare organisations, schools and institutions in South Africa. NGOs which are accountable, reliable and have a history of good service, have been chosen as beneficiaries of this campaign.

- Animals
- Basic Community Welfare
- Children
- Disability
- Education

The Tekkie Tax campaign will take place on 31 May 2013. During the month of April and May, members of the public will be asked to get a Tekkie Tax sticker for a R10 donation from any of the participating outlets or participating welfare organisations.

There will be five different kinds of stickers, each representing a beneficiary sector. People will be able to choose which of the five sectors they would like to support (Animals, Basic community welfare, Children, Disability or Education) by buying one of those sector's stickers.

It's as easy as...
- Get permission from your office to participate in the Tekkie Tax campaign on Friday, 31 May 2013.
- Promote the campaign with our free publicity material: posters and brochures to ensure that each person in the office will know about the campaign and gladly participate
- Choose the beneficiary sector(s) you and your colleagues would like to support and get the appropriate stickers: Animals, Basic community welfare, Children, Disability or Education. Ensure that each of your colleagues have one.
- Wear your tekkies! Now that you each have a sticker, show the world where your heart lies by wearing your sticker and your favourite pair of tekkies on Friday, 31 May 2013.

The campaign is endorsed by some of the biggest and most accountable NGOs in the country:
- Child Welfare SA
- SOS Children's Villages
- Special Olympics SA
- Hospice
- Childhood Cancer Foundation South Africa (CHOC)
- Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT)
- South African Woman's Federation (SAVF) and the list goes on.

All our beneficiary organisations render a service in South Africa. They have been carefully selected, handpicked and we checked them out carefully to ensure that no matter which sector your choose to support, your donation will be used in the best possible way. The Tekkie Tax campaign will be conducted under the auspice of a Charitable Trust called "The Foundation for Social Change through Choice" (FSCC).
