As part of Women\u2019s Month the Thebe Unico ladies heeded a call to contribute to the Caring4Girls initiative supported by Thebe Ya Mosadi.<\/p>\n<p>The Thebe Unico ladies raised a total of R2 229 which was enough to purchase 56 x 4 packs of 10 sanitary towels. We are delighted that our modest contribution will impact almost 224 girls.<\/p>\n<p>At Thebe Unico we are committed to building communities and helping those who are less fortunate than we are. Giving is our way of showing gratitude for a life full of blessings. In much the same fashion as Thebe Unico, the women of the Thebe Group came together in full force to support the initiative at the Women\u2019s Day celebration. They were able to raise 400 sanitary towel donations to be contributed to the Caring4Girls initiative.<\/p>\n<p>Donations are still being collected and can be delivered to Thebe House in Rosebank on a continuous basis as we aim to debunk the stereotypes of the natural journey towards womanhood.<\/p>\n<p>Just like Anne Frank, we believe that \u201cno one has ever become poor by giving\u2019\u2019and that there is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-846 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/2015\/08\/thebe-unico-cares-for-girls\/20150806_114703\/#main'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20150806_114703-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20150806_114703-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20150806_114703-179x179.jpg 179w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/2015\/08\/thebe-unico-cares-for-girls\/20150806_121903\/#main'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20150806_121903-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20150806_121903-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thebe.co.za\/thebeblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20150806_121903-179x179.jpg 179w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nerusha Singh There is a Chinese Proverb that says \u201cIf you want to go fast, walk alone.
