Its official – winter has hit Cape Town and it has hit hard!

And in the spirit of the CPUT Gives Back Campaign, we are calling on all staff members to spread the warmth and donate a blanket.

But before we provide you with more details on the blanket drive, we just want to convey a very BIG THANK YOU to all staff who came on board and participated in our school shoe and cat food drive.

By digging deep into your pockets, CPUT was able to put much needed school shoes on the feet of learners attending the Athlone School for the Blind (see the attached photograph).

The donation of cat food has already been distributed to the dedicated group of staff members and volunteers who are keeping our campus cats well fed.

If you did not manage to participate in the previous campaigns, don’t despair.

Go out and purchase a blanket at your local store and pop it into one of the donation boxes that is currently up in the admin areas at our various campuses.

You can also drop off your blanket at the Marketing and Communication Department office on the Bellville Campus (Administration Building, second floor).

Come on CPUT, let’s join together and spread the warmth this winter!

Have a great weekend and keep warm!

The Marketing and Communication Department
