Working together with like-minded people makes a difference and has a bigger impact. As far back as 1995, Radio Khwezi has been working with the communities in which it operates. A community outreach that it regularly supports is the KHULA to Clean up Together campaign of the aQuellé bottled water brand. The award-winning bottled drink aQuellé has taken the lead with this clean-up campaign, and it is impacting neighbourhoods big time. Their soft drink, Khula, is at the root of the campaign.
A community clean-up is a project in which everyone can participate to improve the environment. The aQuellé team takes pride in knowing they are helping the community regain a usable space.
aQuellé initiated the clean-up campaign in 2020 and regularly collaborates with communities and local authorities to make the world a cleaner place for those who live in it. So far, the aQuellé team has had over sixty successful clean-ups across South Africa, in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, and even in Mossel Bay in the Garden Route. They have already teamed up with other communities and will soon join them in cleaning up neglected areas.
The team of our sister publication, Devoted, accompanied them on an outing and can testify that the fantastic team enjoys helping the community make a difference. They are paving the way for the rest of the country to follow their clean-up footsteps and join the journey!
This is how you clean up a neglected and unclean environment—doing it together! You can also make a difference in your community by doing the same. Team up with local businesses and your local authority and start cleaning up. This will benefit you, your community, and your neighbourhood, and you will contribute to economic development!
Visit the aQuellé website to initiate a clean-up in your area. It is our responsibility to help clean up and maintain our environment. Let’s do it!
