CORPORATE SOCIAL INVESTMENT

Overberg Water Board has developed a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Corporate Social Investment (CSI) for the purpose of adoption and usage by Overberg Water Board. This policy hopes to provide guidance to Overberg Water Board on the nature of CSR and CSI activities in which it should participate and guide Overberg Water Board on the expenditure/budget/investment required for the implementation of the organisation’s CSR programme.


There will be a co-ordinated approach to the implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives by Overberg Water Board. The suggested establishment of an inter-divisional Corporate Social Responsibility Task Team will ensure that Overberg Water Board has a co-ordinated and coherent approach to Corporate Social Responsibility, and it will also identify and recommend appropriate projects/initiatives for funding or other forms of support.

One of the key anticipated outcomes of Overberg Water Board’s CSR activities would be a contribution to development – both in the social and economic spheres. This is in line with the organisation’s strategic developmental role, amplified in the Shareholder Compact in which there are explicit references to the developmental role of water boards. In addition, the organisation’s contribution to development is espoused in its Business Plan and organisational Values, therefore, its participation in CSR and consequential investment are a natural extension to these commitments.

SOCIAL AWARENESS

Overberg approached TWK Municipality Traffic Department to assist  with a roadblock to spread awareness amongst the Caledon Community. Overberg handed out pamphlets and bottled water, while informing the community about water saving and the importance of water in the Society.

We had the privilege to meet with a lot of community members which included learners and students.

Preserve water, preserve life!
