GL events Oasys and Homemakers ride for a purpose

To acknowledge and commemorate 20 years of a successful working partnership with the Homemakers Expo, GL events Oasys and Homemakers' staff will ride together in the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge this coming weekend to raise money for the Meals on Wheels foundation.

For the past 20 years GL events Oasys has proudly been the HOMEMAKERS Expo partner in building a successful exhibition each year. They have now also joined hands with HOMEMAKERS in their quest to change lives for the Meals on Wheels community.

HOMEMAKERS created their own charity in support of Meals on Wheels, the HOMEMAKERS Wheelers, for hungry tummies. 10 members of the GL events Oasys team will join HOMEMAKERS and ride for this purpose at this year's Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge, each contributing R320 to the cause.

Meals on Wheels Community Services is a registered not-for-profit organisation that feeds over 10 million meals per year in their 140 branches and 280 service points countrywide. They not only feed the poorest of the poor, vulnerable persons and the elderly but also get businesses and individuals to voluntarily help renovate the properties of needy individuals and organisations.

HOMEMAKERS and the HOMEMAKERS staff members have been involved with Meals on Wheels since 2012 and have whole heartedly supported them ever since.

GL events Oasys was the first to bring their paint, paint brushes and cheerful staff to start painting the outside walls, railings and post boxes of the Moffatview Old Age Home based in the South of Joburg on the 29th of May. On the 8th of June 2013 GL events Oasys donated the beautiful cupboards and carpets for Hannah House that contributed to the revamp of their girl's, boy's, baby's room and baby's changing room.

GL events Oasys are also the main sponsor on the national HOMEMAKERS expo CSI project, A Brick in the Wall, which further supports the Meals on Wheels Orphanage Initiatives.
