In response to this urgent need for societal change, Isanti Glass, a leading glass manufacturing company in South Africa, has launched its inaugural Take a Boy Child to Work initiative.
This programme is designed to mentor and inspire young boys from the surrounding communities of Phumula, Buhle Park Secondary, and Rondebult. The initiative aims to provide these young men with first-hand experience in the glass manufacturing industry, offering them insights into various operations and potential career opportunities within the field. By engaging with industry professionals and observing day-to-day activities at the factory, the boys are encouraged to envision a future in which they can play a significant role. The programme provides young boys with positive mentorship, helping to instil values of respect, responsibility, and equality from an early age.
Pieter Du Plessis, CEO of Isanti Glass, addressed the young men during their visit, sharing valuable insights about the company’s operations and the numerous opportunities available within the industry. He stated: "At Isanti Glass, we believe in nurturing the potential of our youth. This initiative is a step towards equipping these young men with the knowledge and inspiration they need to build successful futures. We are committed to investing in the next generation and fostering a culture of learning and growth."
Ward Councillor Nqabayethu Tshabalala also attended the event, highlighting the pressing social ills affecting the community and the importance of initiatives like this. "Our community faces numerous challenges, including unemployment and a lack of educational resources. It is imperative that we address these issues head-on by providing our youth with opportunities to learn and grow. I commend Isanti Glass for their dedication to making a positive impact through this initiative, as it not only benefits the boys involved but also strengthens our entire community."
Isanti Glass’s commitment to giving back to the community and empowering the youth is a cornerstone of its corporate social responsibility efforts. By launching the Take a Boy Child to Work initiative, the company aims to create a lasting positive impact on the lives of young boys, inspiring them to pursue their dreams and contribute meaningfully to society.
By fostering a new generation of men committed to positive societal contributions, Isanti Glass hopes to contribute to a future where all citizens can thrive in a safer, more equitable society.
