Pebbles Project



The following was posted on 22 October 2007 by Pebbles Project for special-needs children, an organisation which is a fan of the MTN Sciencentre's activities.

The project organisers traveled to London to partake in the Wines of South Africa Mega Tasting. Pebbles had a stand at the show with application forms for Sponsor a Child and the first ever Pebbles Christmas cards, featuring three of the children Pebbles supports in their red Christmas hats.

Pebbles raised a total of R200,000 over the week they were there. The money raised from this London tour will enable Pebbles to implement weekly educational trips for the crèche and afterschool children. These trips mean almost 80 children a week can visit places such as the MTN Science centre, the Spier Cheetah outreach programme, the Nature Reserve and have fun yet educational days out.
