Ringing the bells on a giving note

Bell Equipment employees and the children and volunteers of the Izulu Orphan Project share a happy moment together

Digging deep into their pockets Bell Equipment employees gave generously towards their annual Christmas Collection effort this year, filling boxes of toys for the Izulu Orphan Project’s (IOP) annual Christmas party. IOP, founded by Chadd and Kate Bain, celebrated its tenth Christmas party this year, which had to be spread over three days to cater for the over 2 500 children and caregivers within the project. ‘Bell has partnered with IOP on a three year development project aimed at improving early childhood development interventions in the area, so making IOP the recipients of our Christmas Collection this year made sense,’ said Carole Hills, who facilitates Bell Equipment’s Social Economic Development projects in the area.
