While reflecting on the death of Nelson Mandela, a year ago, on Friday, staff from Roshcon Construction handed over a donation of teddy bears, clothes, shoes and other useful items to Germiston Child Welfare, thus keeping Mandela’s spirit, legacy and commitment to caring for others alive, despite his absence.<\/p>\n

Barbara Bouwer, director of Germiston Child Welfare, thanks each and every person who contributed from Roshcon Construction, for the difference they have made in the lives of children during 2014.<\/p>

\"There<\/a>
There were so many teddy bears donated to Germiston Child Welfare by employees from Roshcon Construction, that they had to be transported by TLB.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cThank you so much for sharing, but even more so for caring.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese teddy bears will most likely become a close companion to the children receiving them, something to hold close when they feel lost or scared and sometimes even a ‘silent ear’ to listen to their fears, secrets, hopes and dreams,\u201d said Bouwer.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

She further wished all the employees and their families a blessed festive season.<\/p>\n
