Aqua Amazing
Sasol donates PPE and sanitiser
to fenceline communities in
KwaZulu-Natal
Aqua Amazing has developed unique ways to
motivate and educate communities on marine
and environmental issues. The hands-on
approach includes shark dissection – presenting
amazing facts and figures relating to sharks,
marine conservation and marine science
matters. Sasol employees participated in the
show and number of learners were reached at
Sasol Techno X which was attended by
approximately 26 000 learners.
Sasol has assisted mitigating the spread of COVID-19 in areas of
KwaZulu-Natal by donating personal protective equipment
(PPE) and hand sanitiser to communities-in-need adjacent to
its operations.
These communities, such as Wentworth, are critical to Sasol’s
ongoing viability and sustainability. We are committed, not only
to uplifting and supporting these communities, but also
developing local suppliers with whom we can work on a
long-term basis.
Our focus is on sustaining the communities where we do business
and contributing to their long-term socioeconomic success.
To support these communities, Sasol made the following
donations:
Wentworth communities received 2 000 litres of sanitiser
with the help of the South Durban Basin Community
Development Trust.
eThekwini Disaster Management received 2 100 litres of
sanitiser, 2 000 bars of soap, 1 000 gloves and 1 000 masks.
eThekwini fenceline communities received 6 000 litres
of sanitiser.
uMhlathuze Municipality received 1 000 litres of sanitiser
for first-line emergency responders.
Mandeni and Newcastle Municipalities each received 2 000 litres
of sanitiser for first-line emergency responders.
Sasol Early Childhood Development (ECD) programme received
1 500 litres of sanitiser, implemented in conjunction with The
Unlimited Child in KwaZulu-Natal.
Cleaning up
Employees from our Base Chemical operations
participated in various clean-up activities in
KwaZulu-Natal and other areas during World
Clean Up Day.
Operation Anti-Freeze
Operation Anti-Freeze runs school projects
where they support over 500 children
in 11 schools by providing monthly food
parcels to those identified in need.
Five Base Chemicals’ employees initiated this
as a Sasol for Good initiative. Colleagues were
requested to support by donating perishable
food items and assist in packing hampers.
About 507 children received food hampers
and R25 000 was donated to Anti-Freeze
organisation.
