National Milling Company has disclosed that it has spent about K500 million on its Social Corporate Responsibility (SCR) programme on various interventions.
National Milling Managing Director Peter Cottan said the interventions include the feeding programmes for the vulnerable children at SOS village in Lusaka and Kitwe, World Life preservation and sports activities sch as boxing and football.
He said his company has this year ploughed more in society as compared to previous years because of the value it attaches to communities it serves.
Mr. Cottan made the remarks when his organization donated 43 by 10 kg bags of breakfast mealie meal valued over K700, 000 to KAZA Children home of Lusaka.
Former Miss Zambia Precious Mumbi commended organisations that are looking after the vulnerable in society.
Centre President Jessy Bwalya said her organization does not force children that are constantly sick to go for Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) without their consent.
She said her organization through intensive counseling has managed to rehabilitate children that are abused .
The centre that is supporting about 43 children, was opened about 10 months ago.
I hope national milling pays its employees well intead of hiding in these social responsibilities, it is common of most of the companies in zambia to run to the press when they give to the communite but their employees are destitutes who need the company`s help, eg kcm, national milling, banks etc
Kulibonesha ta!!!
Well,thats so good.We need to have such companies in a country like zambia.
I hope even the employees are treated likewise.
Foreign investors should learn from National Milling.”National Milling” Go National.
Wishing all the Management and employees all the best in 2008.
I don’t think that could be kulibonesha,unless these guys just mentioned about their profitability and so on.Love for the society is a godly gift.
Happy New Year to all da bloggers and they that keep this web go on and on.THANX
