BMi Research "makes a house, a home"

When a team of volunteers from BMi Research helped put together a house as part of their on-going CSR Initiative with the Ubuhle Care and Development Centre in Bronkhorstspruit during 2012, it signalled fresh hope for an underprivileged family living in the area.

The BMi Research team helped by laying bricks which were used to build a house for Sarah and her family who had been identified by the Ubuhle Day Care Centre as needing urgent help. After a lot of hard work, by the staff members of both BMi Research and 4PL, the house was completed in record time. BMi Research managed to secure 102 bricks, whilst 4PL secured 400 and the house was finally completed on 18 July 2013.

On 6 September, BMi Research went back to paint the house in efforts to renovate and upgrade the house to a home. Several items such as bedding, curtains, clothing and groceries were also donated to the family.

Thoko Kokela-Ntuli founder of Ubuhle Care and Development Centre in reaction to the painting said: "It made me feel so happy, and I am so grateful to BMi Research employees who came and got their hands dirty to help those who are in need."
