Our Support for People with Disabilities
The Multotec Group is proud to partner with a range of social upliftment projects making an impact in their communities. Little Eden Elvira Rota Village is home to about 300 residents with profound intellectual disabilities. Some of the residents have a family and only make use of the facility for their special care. Some of the children call this place home and the staff are family. We are very proud long-term supporters of this incredible organisation.
Here’s a recap on Our Support for People with Disabilities with Little Eden in 2019:
Koketso Mokoena
In 2010, Multotec ‘adopted’ baby Koketso Mokoena, who lives at Little Eden Elvira Rota Village in Bapsfontein. On 29 May 2019, Lindiwe Kabini and Adel Kruger of Multotec Kempton Park celebrated her 10th birthday with her. Koketso’s growth and development has been amazing and she is making great progress in learning to sit and also to drink on her own by using a sippy cup.
To the Little Eden Kings and Queens, may the Lord grant them strength and wisdom. This is one of the places that has reminded me to be thankful to God. I have great respect for the people working in that place because you need to have a meek and humble heart to work with the children and adults that stay at Little Eden.”- Isaac T Matlala, Quality Inspector for Multotec Manufacturing.
Wheelchair Challenge
During the month of March 2019, which is National Intellectual Disability month, Multotec’ s Group Human Resource Executive, Michael Budynkiewicz, took the Little Eden challenge by spending a day at work in a wheelchair to raise awareness and to support people living with profound intellectual disability.
Little Eden is a home that is very close to the Multotec heart and we will continue our commitment to the organisation and, of course, to our angel Koketso, for years to come.
