Big Brothers Big Sisters SA: ‘Marang House most committed organisation’
 

Marang House was awarded the title of ‘most committed organisation in the Big Brothers Big Sisters Programme’ today during the annual awards ceremony of the Big Brothers Big Sisters SA organisation (BBBSSA) in Johannesburg.

Last year, Marang House entered into a partnership agreement with BBBSSA to match all of its children with a dedicated volunteer. BBBSSA has made a significant impact at Marang House and we are very honoured and grateful for this partnership and to receive this title. More info on BBBSSA on http://www.bbbssa.org.za/.

During the ceremony, three of the matches at Marang House (volunteer and child) also received certificates, this for successfully completing the minimum of one year in the programme.
