We believe that good comes from good and we are committed to supporting a number of needy causes.

Fundraisers

For our second year running, MIP Process will be attending a golf day at Nigel Golf Course in aid of Alte Meyer. The purpose of this day is to raise funds for Alte, who was diagnosed with Acute Meloid Leukemia in July 2010. Last year we entered a four ball, took part in the Auction and sponsored a hole, where we supplied refreshments to the players. We will be donating a framed and signed Blue Bulls jersey and painting of Joost van der Westhuizen this year with our four ball.

eDeaf

One of the major contributions we make is to the eDeaf. Deaf people are many times marginalised since they cannot communicate freely and are often regarded as incompetent or not intelligent. MIP has contributed to set up a new training centre where deaf people are trained for specific skills that allows them to be employed.

Gauteng Indoor Netball

Our sporting passion comes to the fore as MIP is the official sponsor of the Gauteng Indoor Netball Team. We are proud as the team came home with the bronze medal from the national tournament that took place in May 2011.

The staff were all involved in buying and providing Christmas gifts and sweet parcels for twenty-nine orphans, aged between 5 months and 18 years, at The Place of Refugee Shelter. In addition to this, two hundred kids benefitted from Easter parcels that MIP staff contributed.
