COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AT SOUTHERN BUSINESS SCHOOL
Community engagement at Southern Business School is guided by the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals (MDG’s). Therefore initiatives which we support should fall within the ambit of these goals. The MDG’s are to end poverty and hunger, universal education, gender equality, child health, maternal health, combating HIV/AIDS, environmental sustainability and achieving global partnership for development. However the main focus of our support rests on our core business – education.
In an effort to truly engage with the community, Southern Business School believes that a mere philanthropic approach is not sufficient and thus we have approached community engagement through financial support, general support for community development projects and volunteer support.
The Southern Business School Charity Golf Day and the Alumni Association currently form the bulk of our community engagement initiatives. All funds received from Alumni membership go towards community development in Southern Africa.
Southern Business School is very excited at the many prospects for CE throughout Southern Africa.
