Steinmueller Africa and Eskom contribute significantly to the betterment of eMalahleni communities, not just by providing finances but also resources.
In the heart of Mpumalanga, Steinmüller Africa and Eskom are making a tangible difference in the lives of many, particularly through their significant social upliftment initiatives in eMalahleni.
One of the key recipients of these initiatives is the Elkana Educational Centre, a private, non-profit institution that provides care and education for children with diverse abilities from disadvantaged backgrounds. The school supports learners across various phases: pre-junior, junior, intermediate, and senior.
Recently, Steinmüller Africa and Eskom donated essential goods, including groceries, toiletries, and sanitary towels, to the Elkana Educational Centre. The partnership doesn't stop at material support; employees from Steinmüller Africa also spent a morning at the centre, participating in activities such as netball, football, and playground play. Stacey Jansen, the Principal, highlighted that these contributions significantly support the children and the time spent with them leaves a lasting positive impact.
Another beneficiary of these initiatives is Emalahleni Child and Family Welfare, an organisation that has served the community for over 87 years and plays a vital role in child protection and social welfare services throughout the greater eMalahleni area. The partnership aims to support the welfare of children and families in the community by providing necessary resources and fostering lasting relationships.
Moso Bolofo, Steinmüller Africa Director, emphasized that their efforts extend beyond infrastructure to building hope, dignity, and shared growth within the community. Steinmüller Africa believes that true progress comes not only through industrial advancement but also through compassion, inclusivity, and shared growth.
Thomas Maduna, Acting Project Manager for Steinmüller Africa Duvha PowerStation, emphasized Steinmüller Africa's ongoing commitment to corporate social responsibility. Maduna stated that donations offer immediate relief and instill pride among Steinmüller Africa employees living in the communities.
Steinmüller Africa's philosophy emphasizes showing up and engaging with the communities around them, rather than just giving. Lerato J Bam, Board Secretary of Emalahleni Child and Family Welfare, stated that the support from businesses like Steinmüller Africa and Eskom makes a tangible difference in the lives of many.

Moreover, the business's corporate social responsibility initiatives aim to foster hope, dignity, and shared growth within the community, believing that true progress comes from both industrial advancement and compassionate engagement with local residents.
