CSR

Fabricated Steel Manufacturing Company prides itself in being involved in various projects and initiatives to uplift its own staff and also the lives of South Africans.

FSM strives to improve the lives of its staff and to assist them to lead their families and communities by example. The following initiatives have been undertaken by FSM:

Lephalale Community Policing Forum

FSM supplied Artisan and Semi Skilled labour accommodation to Eskom’s new Medupi Power station in Lephalale in Limpopo province. As a result, this small town experienced a ‘population explosion’ with pressure being put on all services including those provided by the South African Police Service (SAPS). FSM assisted with donating mobile accommodation units and the upgrading of facilities to the value of almost R1.2m to the Lephalale Community Policing Forum to assist with their services to the greater community of Lephalale.

Ebenezer Care Centre

FSM was approached to assist with the donation of a crèche building at the Ebenezer Care Centre in Orange Farm just outside Johannesburg. This crèche looks after young children from this very poor area and runs in conjunction with the International Assemblies of God Church run by Rev JJ Lekgula.

Jabulani Rural Health Foundation – Ngcwanguba Clinic

FSM was approached by the Jabulani Rural Health Foundation, a foundation formed by Doctors based at the Zithulele Hospital near Coffee Bay / Hole in the Wall in the Eastern Cape (formerly the Transkei) to assist with an HIV/Aids outreach programme at the nearby Ngcwanguba Clinic.

FSM donated a double wide mobile clinic building to Jabulani Rural Health Foundation for use in their programme. For more information on the work done by the foundation, please view their website on www.jabulanifoundation.org

Siyabonga Creche

The Vryheid branch of Child Welfare South Africa obtained donated funds to purchase a prefabricated building from FSM for use as a crèche building at the Siyabonga Creche in Gluckstad. FSM agreed to donate the transport costs and erection costs (labour and concrete) for this worthwhile project. The photos of the beneficiaries says it all.

Rondebult Primary School

FSM were approached by The Star Newspaper’s Teach Fund in conjunction with their Lead SA initiative to donate a classroom to the Rondebult Primary School. The article below shows how desperate the need was at the school with 106 grade 1 Zulu children being crammed into 1 classroom. The additional classroom has made the world of difference to these children’s lives and futures.

Masonwabe Pre School

FSM were approached by the Loaves and Fishes Network, an organisation based in East London who were looking to set up a crèche building for the community. They had secured certain funding but not enough to purchase the size of building they wished. FSM agreed to discount the building price and to donate the foundation and concrete work.

Pro Kids Day care

The founder and parents of this day care facility in Soweto managed to raise R50 000 towards upgrading their day care and primary school. FSM assisted with the sponsorship of the balance of the funds to procure a mobile classroom so that that children could learn in a suitable environment.

Patrick Mashego School

Following an initiative by the Principal and Senior staff members of the Beaulieu Preparatory School who raised more than R55 000 on the CEO sleepout, FSM agreed to fund the balance of the cost of a mobile classroom. After consultation with the Africa Food for Thought programme, the Patrick Mashego School was identified as the recipient of this classroom as they were in desperate need for more space for their Grade R pupils.
