Donation to the Natal Children's Home

Children are indeed our future, so when J Leslie Smith & Co became aware of the appeal made by the Natal Children’s Home, the staff members were only too excited to get involved.

Penny Tiernay, Fiona Lubbe and Naheem Essop of J Leslie Smith & Co spearheaded a campaign, with resounding success, to collect donations consisting of canned food and essential items for the Home. Donations to the value of R5,000.00 were handed over to Debbie Schroeder, the representative of the Natal Children’s Home on Friday 17th July 2009.

Debbie who was extremely appreciative, expressed her sincere gratitude to J Leslie Smith & Co and all those who had made donations.

J Leslie Smith & Co hope that their campaign to assist the Natal Children’s Home serves to encourage other legal firms to meet this challenge and advise they would be happy to be beaten at this particular challenge.
