Port Elizabeth\u2019s Tavcor Motor Group celebrated its commitment to the Khaya Cheshire childrens\u2019 charity with a birthday bash and large cheque to mark the fifth year that the motor dealership has supported the centre.<\/p>\n

In 2006 the Tavcor Motor Group was approached to assist with the establishment of Khaya Cheshire in Port Elizabeth\u2019s Gqebera (Walmer) Township.<\/p>\n

Khaya Cheshire, as an outreach project of the Summerstrand-based Cheshire Homes, focuses on providing a daycare facility for disabled children in the township.<\/p>\n

The children are provided with daily meals, assistive devices such as wheelchairs, basic healthcare monitoring, food parcels for home and transport to and from the daycare centres. <\/p>\n

In 2009 Cheshire Homes expanded its circle of care and opened Miracle Kids in Cleary Park. In total the two centres care for 65 disabled children.<\/p>\n

The Tavcor Motor Group has made an annual corporate donation to the centres since 2006.<\/p>\n

In addition the Company\u2019s Employee Representative Council raises funds for the \u201cspecial needs\u201d of the children on an ongoing basis.<\/p>\n

Fundraising efforts include monthly market days where staff members have the opportunity to buy delicious food made by Cheshire homes residents, some of whom are qualified chefs.<\/p>\n

Funds raised through the company\u2019s recycling projects are all donated to the centres.<\/p>\n

In line with Tavcor\u2019s commitment to supporting disabled children CEO Alan Taverner, was proud to present Khaya Cheshire Co-ordinator Hilary Bolton with their biggest financial contribution to date. <\/p>\n

Tavcor Human Resources Manager, Megan Stow, said, \u201cHanding over an R80 000 cheque was a true privilege. I feel very proud of our relationship with Khaya and Miracle Kids and admire the great work done by both centres.\u201d<\/p>\n

Delicious cake, many smiles and a well sung national anthem, topped off with the generous contribution from Tavcor, made for a special, memorable day for all.<\/p>\n
