Blossom Solutions is a South African-based company focused on improving access to sanitary pads for young girls in townships, creating jobs, and assisting entrepreneurs to establish their black-owned franchises.
Through one such franchise, Grindrod will donate enough funds to provide a year’s supply of sanitary pads to the girl students at Sinaye Primary School in Richards Bay.
A team from Grindrod recently joined the Blossom Care team to launch the initiative at Sinaye Primary School.
Kwazi Mabaso, CEO of Grindrod Terminals, gave a motivational talk. He, too, was a student at the school many years ago. Kwazi then led a song as the students joined him in the celebration.
Grindrod’s Purpose is to make a positive difference in Africa's trade with the world, touching lives of the communities in which it operates.
