“We are privileged to be in a position to provide much-needed assistance and financial support to local schools, and we will continue to do so in a bid to make a difference to the lives of those around us,” say Marilize Lansdell, CEO of PSG Wealth.
These initiatives are in line with the overall corporate social investment programmes of PSG Konsult (of which PSG Wealth is a division). The group focuses on CSI initiatives that are centred around developmental, educational and social programmes. The aim is to contribute to the skills base and educational level of South Africans by ensuring they have access to better facilities at schools.
“Ultimately, we believe these initiatives make a small contribution to strengthening our social and economic base, putting the country on a firmer footing to deliver long-term social and economic improvement,” Lansdell continues.
Each division within the PSG Konsult group run their own CSI initiatives, as do adviser offices, aligned to the group vision. Graduate training and learnership programmes are run at a national level.
