Vouch4US is a Mandela Day project initiated by university staff in collaboration with the universities' social worker Lizzie Witbooi.
We challenge staff to donate a R50 Pick and Pay voucher to help students with basic necessities. The voucher system offers a dignified option for students in need and also communicates the important message that our staff values the potential of Maties with financial worries.
Staff or divisions that are interested to participate can deliver the vouchers directly to Lizzie Witbooi at Student Affairs (lgwitbooi@sun.ac.za or phone 8084511).
A media clip about the project is also available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvAF1g51DqM&rel=0. The vouchers will be managed with a sign out system with quarterly statistical feedback to the Student wellness committee (USASO).
