CESA KZN YPF Pause and Paint session

In honour of Women’s Day 2023, The CESA KZN YPF hosted a Pause and Paint event that aimed to inspire participants through the therapeutic power of art. This unique gathering, generously sponsored by Bosch Holdings (Pty) Ltd. and Talbot, provided an opportunity for attendees to take a pause from their daily routines and immerse themselves in a creative and nurturing environment. The event took place on Saturday, the 12th of August 2023, and was held at La Muse, Pebble Beach. Guided by a professional instructor, the attendees were taken on a journey of self-expression and exploration.

Furthermore, the CESA KZN YPF embarked on a mission to make a difference in the lives of young girls in need. We are thrilled to share the success of our Sanitary Pad Drive! With the incredible support and generosity of our members, partners, and the community, we collected a substantial number of sanitary pads. These pads will be a source of comfort, dignity, and empowerment for young girls in impoverished communities.

We are delighted to announce that the donated sanitary pads have been distributed to not one, but two remarkable non-profit organisations – the Sai Centre in Merebank and Rhythm of Grace NPO. These organisations are doing incredible work to uplift and support those in need, and we are proud to be able to contribute to their initiatives.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the participants, artists, and speakers who made this event and drive a resounding success!
