Throughout its’ existence, SFB Auctions has always been aware of the need to help those less fortunate. As such, SFB Auctions has provided charitable contributions to worthy causes and has been proactive in so far as participating in charity events and creating its’ own initiatives.
Some of the notable causes, events and initiatives we have been involved with are as follows:
- Participated in the Botswana Council for the Disabled’s “disability awareness week” and donated and served refreshments for attendees and dignitaries.
- We answered the call for support, sponsorship and donations by donating a printer and refrigerator to the Batlang Support Group, an organisation which cares for and educates orphaned children, as well as monetary donations to the COVID-19 Relief Fund (Botswana) and the Botswana Gender Based Violence Prevention and Support Centre who’s mission is to support adults and children experiencing and affected by gender based violence.
- We provided sponsorship towards the Tennis4SOS project, an initiative of the SOS Children’s Village, which raised funds for 2 young Batswana tennis players to travel to France to receive training in one of the world’s best tennis academies, Moratoglou Tennis Academy.
- We regularly participate in and support fund raising activities, such as the annual golf day, held by the Journey of Hope Botswana, who travel countrywide in an effort to raise breast cancer awareness.
- Together with Stocker Fleetwood-Bird, we have hosted a blood donation drive on more than one occasion for the National Blood Transfusion Centre, at our offices in the CBD – whereby we invite individuals within the office to donate blood as well as clients to join us in donating to meet Botswana’s supply requirement.
- We provided support to the Dignity Foundation through donations of sanitary pads as well as free auctioneering services at the Foundation’s annual high tea for two years. The Dignity Foundation sources sanitary pads for vulnerable and/ or impoverished child-females who do not have the means of procuring these provisions themselves.
- SFB Auctions has also provided donations, free auctioneering services (to assist in raising funds) and/ or participated in events in aide of the Diabetes Association Botswana, the Cancer Association, Mochudi Hospital and has also embarked on its’ own initiatives such as holding a soup kitchen in Taung village, providing orphaned children with a warm meal and school provisions.
We are always open to hearing from charitable groups/ organisations looking for support for their cause. Please contact us for further information.
