BMG supports Protec, a national nonprofit technological career development programme for senior school students. Protec is an NGO that is completely reliant on donors for support and recently celebrated the Tongaat branch’s 20th anniversary in Maidstone. A highlight of the celebration was the opportunity for former Protec students to encourage and inspire current students to work hard, persevere and appreciate the valuable 10 year support programme from Protec.
