Gernot de Klerk, Head of Nedbank Marketing and Communication shares that the Nedbank Spring Festival remains a special highlight on our Windhoek annual calendar. “As we continue to promote a healthy and active lifestyle, this year in particular we would like to especially bring attention to our Nedbank Spring Health Basket Corporate Challenge, in support of our elderly. “We are challenging our corporates to buy a spring health basket that will be donated to identified old age homes across the country; this drive will run up until the end of September. Spring brings with it a special cheer and we invite you to pay it forward with us.”The Mammadù Children’s Shelter will also be at the event selling crafts made by the mothers of some of the children who receive support from the Mammadù Children Shelter situated in Otjomuise.
