COMMUNITY INVESTMENT COMMITMENTS
Mr Andre Johnson, the Director of Executive Decisions chooses to give back to the community in many different ways. Each year he identifies an organisation taking care of the abandoned, abused and orphaned kids to treat with a Christmas Party.
In December 2003 Filikela Orphanage based in Khayelitsha and in
December 2004 Dado's Foster Home based in Langa township was identified.
(Dado an amazing woman takes care of 16 kids from the age 2 till 16)
This foster home was establsihed since 1984 when she opened her doors to abandoned and neglected children. Some of these children have sad stories affiliated to them and each one in its best merit. One of the children, a very flamboyant little girl was found on Dado's doorstep on a cold winter's morning only about a month old. Having met Dado personally, she is the kind of woman no words can describe and this touched Mr Johnson's heart to such an extent that he would spoiul them often.
He is also looking to build a family relationship with them and make his project for all other special occasions and to assess where he could assist with other financial needs.
On the 21st December 2004 Mr Johnson, accompanied by his family and staff, spoiled the children for the day with gifts, toys and delicious party treats and entertainment. They all took time to sit and interact with the children and spend some quality time with them in order to make them feel extra special and loved on the day.
Presents were carefully selected according to age and sex of the children.
Andre chooses his organisations, by targeting those who do not receive any financial assistance from other companies. Andre also rather prefers to purchase essential goods for each child's needs, rather than to donate money to the home.
