Supporting NPO to Train and Employ Disadvantaged People
Kyocera Document Solutions South Africa has supported a nonprofit organization, Potters House Training Center, since 2006. The training center provides vocational training that leads to jobs for individuals from historically disadvantaged groups that had languished under years of apartheid. That includes basic education and training on maintenance, inspection, and repair of office equipment, made possible by donations from Kyocera Document Solutions South Africa that cover the training center's operational costs.
