Zurich Insurance Company South Africa supports the Bethesda Child and Youth Care Centre

Reinforcing its commitment to socio-economic projects Zurich Insurance Company South Africa, a leading global insurer, is proud to support the Bethesda Child and Youth Care Centre in George (CYCC).

The CYCC has over the years played an important role in hundreds of children’s lives by educating, stimulating and developing them through a professional team who provide occupational therapy, emotional and spiritual care, medical support and psycho-social interventions. Zurich has aligned its support with the needs of these children and visited the Centre to donate toiletries and travel equipment to the youths.

Edwyn O’Neill, CEO of Zurich South Africa said: “Businesses have a responsibility not only to their customers and shareholders but also to the communities within which they operate. We are delighted to be making a difference to the children who are cared for by the Bethesda Child and Youth Care Centre.”

Madeleine Meyer, CEO of Bethesda Child and Youth Care Centre said: “We provide services to 45 orphans and vulnerable children who all come from traumatic or undesirable home circumstances. We are grateful for Zurich’s support which further extends to providing hope for our youth.”
