There was a request to donate water sent out to employees, which they responded to immediately and agreed to assist where they could. Their response included a total of 1 511 litres of water, which was collected, from one-litre to five-litre bottles. The water was dispatched to the Barkley East and Rhodes regions in the Eastern Cape.
According to Gishma Johnson, GMSA Corporate Communications Manager, actions like these are often initiated by employees. In this case, an employee at the Struandale plant, Rene Mostert, responded to the Operation Hydrate campaign and arranged for transport to deliver the water to the relevant areas. “Our employees subscribe to the company’s “We give Back” ethos and are always enthusiastic to react to the call for assistance.”
