The Uzwelo Bags initiative recently presented The Bateleurs with a cheque for R69 606,76.

The Uzwelo Bags initiative, spearheaded by Expand a Sign, sees thousands of meters of their waste textile fabric donated to teams of sewers from underprivileged backgrounds to make unique and truly South African bags and earn a living that puts food on the table for their families, funds education and provides dignity and upliftment for their communities on a long-term basis. A portion of all proceeds from Uzwelo Bag sales are donated to The Bateleurs. 

Founded in 1998, The Bateleurs is a South African non-profit company with over 200 volunteer pilots and aircraft. It provides its beneficiaries and the public with an aerial perspective of the environment and has coordinated several diverse missions throughout South Africa and Africa in support of environmental issues.

“We are proud to support The Bateleurs and share their dedication and commitment to protecting our environment,” says Kirsty Fonzari – Expand a Sign Marketing Manager.
