EVERGREEN RESOURCE CENTRE: DIEN AS ‘DIE HART VAN GEMEENSKAP’
Bib ’n baken van hoop LISA LOTTERING @lisa_demi
ir sommige kinders in die Blackheathgemeenskap is ’n boek ’n groot geskenk. Só het Dawn Petersen, uitvoerende hoof van Evergreen Resource Centre, gesê. “Wanneer kinders boeke kom uitneem, druk hulle die boeke so vas teen hulle – dis amper soos lekkergoed,” het sy verduidelik. Die Evergreen Resource Centre, ’n gemeenskapsbiblioteek in Blackheath in Austenville, is op die gemeenskap gerig om opleiding en opvoeding te verskaf. Vanjaar is díe organisasie die begunstigdes van R15 000 wat by die Tyger Run/Walk ingesamel is. Sedrick Taljaard, bestuurder van Radio Tygerberg 104fm, sê die organisasie is op meriete as die begunstigdes gekies. “Ons het gekyk na die impak wat hulle in die Blackheath-gemeenskap het in terme van opvoeding en opleiding,” sê hy. Taljaard sê hulle het ook gekyk na wat die organisasie aanbied en hoe hulle die gemeenskapslede hoop vir die toekoms gee. “Die organisasie is bewus van die kwessies wat die gemeenskap in die gesig staar en hulle pak daardie uitdagings aan,” sê Taljaard. Met Evergreen Resource Centre tans in sy agste bestaansjaar, ervaar hulle steeds uitdagings. “Ons wil ’n stelsel aankoop wat die boeke per kode merk om rekord daarvan te hou,” sê Petersen. Sy sê hulle wil graag die geld gebruik om dinge makliker te maak en dit gaan beslis daarmee help. Die sentrum moes ook hulle ure aanpas oor die aanvraag vir ’n later sluitingstyd. Dit is nou so aangepas dat leerders hul take en navorsing rustig ná hul buitemuurse aktiwiteite kan doen. Abraham Moses, administrateur van Evergreen Resource Centre, sê die kern van die saak is om mense te bemagtig. “Die gedagte is om almal – van volwassenes tot die kleinkinders – te bemagtig om beter te doen,” sê hy. Hy sê die sentrum word vir verskeie doeleindes gebruik. “Dis iets van alles, maar dien as hart van die gemeenskap. Tans help ons leerders en studente met navorsing en take en baie universiteitstudente en graad 11-leerders kom doen hul prakties

Petersen sê hulle wil die geld gebruik vir die opleiding van vrywilligers, wat nasorgkinders kom help, juis omdat lees so ’n groot

probleem is. “As ’n kind goed kan lees, kan hulle beter sinne skryf en dus sal hulle in hul vakke verbeter, wat ’n nuwe wêreld vir hulle sal oopmaak,” sê sy. “Danksy die sentrum voel die kinders verwyder van die gemeenskap en die gewone

Wesbank seniors have got game JAY-DEE CYSTER @jaydeecyster
he Phumalela senior group from Wesbank attended the Older Persons Games hosted by the Social Development and Early Childhood Development Directorate on Tuesday 3 April at the Green Point Athletics Stadium. The games, which drew more than 4000 older persons from around the City, saw members of the local senior group participating in various categories such as “pass the ball”, the “brisk walk” as well as the “duck walk”. The seniors also spent a moment saluting the late Winnie Madikizela Mandela. “The day was lovely – we had a fantastic time participating in the games,” says Carol Hendricks, the chairperson of Phumalela. “Everything was well organised and it was fantastic to see how seniors can enjoy themselves through sport. It is not the age of the person, but it is the spirit in which the sport is played,” says Hendricks. The Older Persons Games form part of the City’s objective to raise awareness about services available to older persons and to promote healthy living and active ageing.

Rekordgetal inskrywings vir Tyger Run/Walk LISA LOTTERING @demi_lisa ’n Rekordgetal van 8 073 drawwers en stappers het aan vanjaar se Tyger Run/Walk deelgeneem. Die Tyger Run/Walk, wat deur Radio Tygerberg 104fm in samewerking met TygerBurger en Tygervallei-winkelsentrum aangebied word, het vanjaar teruggeskuif na Tygervallei-sentrum. Dit was een van die
faktore wat bygedra het tot die rekordgetal inskrywings. Die meeste hardlopers (3 444) het vir die 10 km ingeskryf, 2 484 vir die halfmarathon en 2 145 het die 5 km gestap of gedraf. Top Events was die projekbestuurders, terwyl Van der Merwe & Robertson-Durbanville-atletiekklub verantwoordelik was vir die roetes en waterpunte. Borgskappe van Bright’s Hardeware en Discovery Vitality, wat onder meer bonus-
punte aan sy lede toegeken het, het tot die sukses van die jaarlikse wedloop bygedra. Danksy donasies van deelnemers is die Evergreen Resource Centre in Blackheath, ’n biblioteek wat druk besoek word deur die gemeenskap, vanjaar se begunstigdes van R15 000. Die sentrum, wat met sy biblioteek, rekenaar- en geletterdheidsklasse ’n reuseverskil in die gemeenskap maak, gaan die geld onder meer aanwend om ’n elektroniese besprekingstelsel te finansier.

MySchool donates massive amount to charity L
ast year, MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet, one of South Africa’s foremost loyalty fundraising programmes, celebrated its 20th anniversary with the social media-driven #MySchool20 campaign. Twenty winning customers and their 20 favourite causes have been announced, with each customer receiving a R20 000 Woolworths gift card and their nominated schools and charities each receiving a R20 000 cash donation. The more than 1.2 million South African supporters of the programme raise funds for causes they find most important by simply having their cards scanned at the purchase points or online checkouts of the partner retailers. Throughout the 20th anniversary campaign, supporters took to Twitter and Facebook to raise awareness of the schools and organisations they support by starting conversations about their favourite causes using the hashtag #MySchool20. Thirteen schools as well as various charitable causes across the country, including local school Tuscany Glen Primary, each received a R20 000 prize. Tuscany Glen received their prize thanks to MySchool card holder and supporter Elmaree Fisher, who took to Facebook to enter the competition. “MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet congratulates the 20 conversation starters that enabled these schools and organisations to get a fundraising boost in celebration of our 20th anniversary,” says Pieter Twine, MySchool’s general manager. “The programme strives to make it simple and easy for South Africans to be part of what matters most to them, whether that’s an underresourced school or rhino conservation or their favourite local charity. Going forward, we aim to double our impact by getting at least two million supporters on board.” Customers are able to sign up for free and can nominate up to three schools, charities or conservation causes as beneficiaries. Every time the customer’s card is scanned at a point of purchase in a Woolworths store or at any of the over 1500 stores supporting the programme, the participating retailer will make a contribution to the selected beneficiaries at no cost to the consumer. To join, visit www.myschool.co.za or download the MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet app from your app store.

ie Universiteit van Wes-Kaapland se atletiekspan het verlede maand aan twee atletiekbene by die LC de Villiers-stadion in Pretoria deelgeneem met die hoop om op hul sesde plek van verlede jaar te verbeter. Die topuniversiteite in die land neem aan die Varsity-atletiekbyeenkoms deel, en is Maties, Tukkies, Noordwes, UJ, Ikeys, Kovsies, Madibaz en UWK.
Die UWK het gemengde welslae by albei byeenkomste behaal en het inderdaad vyfde geëindig. In die mansafdeling het Ashley Smith aan die 1 500 m deelgeneem en in die eerste byeenkoms tweede geëindig na die SA kampioen, Rantso Makopane, wat die wedloop met ’n naelloop voltooi het. In die tweede byeenkoms het hy die bordjies verhang en Makopane 10 m voor die wenpaal verbygesteek vir sy sege. “Die eerste wedloop was ’n baie taktiese een, want Ashley se oefenmaat, BruceLynn Damons, het die pas aangegee en toe moes hy tweede viool speel. “Die wedloop op 23 Maart was ’n heel ander storie. Anthony Timoteus en Ashley het UWK verteenwoordig en mekaar gehelp in die wedloop. “Hul plan het gewerk en Ashley het Rantso se renplan gevolg en hom toe met sy eie medisyne geklop. Anthony was ’n sekonde agter Rantso in die derde plek,” het Glen Bentley, atletiekafrigter, gesê. In die vroue-afdeling het Nabeela Parker die 100 m in ’n tyd van 11.65 gehardloop om tweede te eindig. Haar oefenmaat Robyn Haupt was die beste UWK-vroueatleet in die tweede kompetisie op 23 Maart in Pretoria, waar sy tweede in die 200 m klaargemaak het. Sy was in dieselfde wedloop as Justine Palframan, die wêreld se 400 m-studentekampioen en die SA 200 m- en 400 m-kampioen. Die IAAF-puntetabel word gebruik en atlete se vertoning op die dag bepaal hoeveel punte hulle aanteken en alle tellings word dan opgetel om die wenspan aan te wys. UWK-atletiek het vanjaar ook ’n groot rol in die WP se A span gespeel. “Uit die 16 mans het ons 8 UWK-atlete in die span gehad. Simon Magakwe, die eerste Suid Afrikaner wat die 100 m onder 10 sekondes gehardloop het, is nou ’n UWK-atleet en het sy sewende SA titel by die nasionale kampioenskap ingepalm. Uit die twaalf vroue-atlete het ons ook vier atlete van UWK. Nabeela Parker is aangewys as spankaptein. Anthony Timoteus, was ’n uitblinker tydens die SA kampioenskap toe hy algeheel vyfde was in die 5 000 m. Verlede jaar by die landloopkampioenskap het Anthony ’n tweede plek behaal in die 4 km, met sy spanmaat Ashley Smith in die derde plek,” het Bentley gesê.
