hesitate
The CEO in his remarks said when ESSA approached them formally regarding the sponsorship, they did not hesitate to commit their assistance. “We are delighted today to announce the sponsorship of E30 000 to Eswatini Schools Sports Association,” Dlamini said. He revealed that it was in the DNA of Select to assist school children as they believed they were the future leaders of the country as per their slogan ‘Sikhula Nawe’. He said this was not the first time they partnered with schools as they had been sponsoring school athletics at regional level for a number of years. “As a business, we have decided to spread our wings to support schools at national level,” he added. Dlamini further said it was worth mentioning that teachers and the ministry were their biggest clients, therefore, in all their CSI and sponsorship campaigns they made it a point that they prioritised them.
relationship
“We believe and hope that our relationship will continue for many years and will grow in leaps and bounds,” he concluded. Meanwhile, Myeni said the sponsorship would go a long way in benefitting the children as the core beneficiaries of the ‘marriage’ they had with Select. “This money will be used in the regional championships next month,” Myeni said. On the other hand, Inspector Nkambule thanked Select for choosing to partner with schools as sports played a huge role in the upbringing of children.
