CEVA Logistics South Africa Empowers the workforce of the future

At CEVA Logistics, our commitment to fostering growth extends beyond the realm of logistics. We believe in the transformative power of education and are actively contributing to empowering the future workforce. As part of our ongoing efforts in the MEA region, we are proud to share a heartwarming initiative that echoes our campaign slogan: "Empowering Growth through Learning."

Investing in the Future: A Commitment to Education

At CEVA Logistics South Africa, we actively contribute to BBBEE (Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment), fostering economic participation for historically disadvantaged individuals. This commitment aligns with our inspiring journey to support learners-in-need, especially those whose parents are cherished members of our CEVA family. Recognizing education as a cornerstone for individual and collective progress, we've implemented a scheme to assist in paying school fees for the children of our dedicated employees.

Charmaine Lalla, Project Manager for MEA Region Digital and Transformation, spearheads this initiative. "We've been running this scheme for two years," she shares. "Every year, we encourage our colleagues to apply for funding. The applications undergo a meticulous verification process to ensure the funds are allocated where they are needed the most."

"Charity Starts at Home": Making a Tangible Difference

Approximately 20 employees benefit from this program annually, witnessing firsthand the positive impact on their children's education. Charmaine notes, "You can really see the change. CEVA South Africa's support is nurturing personal talents and contributing to academic excellence among our colleagues' children."

But our commitment to education doesn't stop there.

Extending the Reach: Partnerships for Educational Opportunities

Our dedication to creative learning solutions goes beyond internal efforts. CEVA Logistics South Africa has fostered valuable partnerships, one of which resulted in a heartfelt letter of gratitude from Liberty Luag Mbathane, a university student who recently completed his second year at the University of the Free State.

Charmaine recounts the story: "Our partnership with a trusted client, manufacturer and distributor of industrial power equipment, opened doors for us to contribute to Liberty's educational journey. It began with a charity event at an orphanage, where CEVA South Africa, in collaboration with one of our clients, provided meals and gifts during the Christmas period. This is where we met Liberty, a bright individual in need of a scholarship for his education."

Ubuntu: Humanity Through Education

Charmaine emphasizes our commitment to the philosophy of "Ubuntu"—the profound belief that we are human only through humanity. With Liberty's success as inspiration, CEVA South Africa aspires to

extend its support to more learners in similar positions, embodying the spirit of empowerment through education.

As we continue to forge ahead in the logistics industry, our dedication to empowering growth through learning remains unwavering. CEVA Logistics South Africa is not just shaping the future of logistics; we're actively contributing to a brighter, educated tomorrow for all.
