BASF Celebrates 16 Years of Partnership with Multotec by Giving Back to the Community


BASF, through its Performance Materials division, proudly marks over 16 plus years of collaboration with Multotec, a leader in process technology solutions for mineral processing plants. To commemorate this significant milestone, BASF is excited to announce a charitable initiative aimed at supporting local children in need.
As part of our anniversary celebrations, BASF will donate 1,392 pairs of school shoes to Katlego Primary School in Daveyton, Gauteng and four other non-profit organizations supported by Multotec. Located in an impoverished area, Katlego Primary School is a no-fee institution where many families struggle to afford essential items such as new school shoes. This initiative aims to alleviate some of the financial burden on parents and ensure that children can attend school with dignity and comfort.
This campaign not only celebrates our long-standing partnership with Multotec but also recognizes their commitment to community support and sustainability. By providing essential school shoes to underprivileged children, we hope to reduce the barriers they face in their daily activities and learning. Further, we aim to educate the community and stakeholders about the importance of proper footwear for children's health, well-being, and educational success, while highlighting the role of both BASF and Multotec in promoting social change.
"At BASF, we are committed to not only fostering innovation within our industry but also making a meaningful impact in the communities where we operate. This commitment is reflected in our decision to celebrate over 16 years of partnership through social impact initiatives" said Oyewale Akeredolu, Head of Sales Perfromance Materials Africa. "Our long-standing collaboration with Multotec extends beyond mere business; it emphasizes cooperation that fosters positive and transformative change, driving innovative and sustainable development within our sector. We take great pride in supporting Katlego Primary School and other organizations committed to empowering our youth".
This donation is an ongoing commitment of both BASF and Multotec to corporate social responsibility and community engagement. By providing essential resources to children in need, we hope to inspire a brighter future for the next generation.
