Volkswagen SA has donated two Crafter buses to the Nokuphila Community Services, a non-profit organisation based in kwaThema, Springs.
The NCS provides after-care support to over 350 school children. Nokuphila also provides support to families and people affected by HIV/Aids.
The two converted Volkswagen Crafter buses with a combined value of R800 000 will be used to supplement Nokuphila’s transportation programme which includes shuttling learners from schools in KwaThema.

The Crafters will also transport HIV/Aids patients to health facilities in Gauteng.
