Community news: SA Cares for Life pizza bust with Panarottis Menlyn

Thank you for your generosity today, Panarottis Menlyn. One of VDT's staff members submitted a motivation for a Panarottis pizza bust, and together we were able to express our appreciation to a wonderful community organisation, SA Cares for Life, by surprising them with tasty pizza from Panarottis Menlyn.

Here’s the motivation that made the magic happen:

I first met Sanet Fagan from SA Cares for Life in 2018. My firm partnered with them and GROOTfm to build a school for residents in Pretoria’s so-called Plastic City. You can read about the work they do here: https://www.sacares.website/.

My respect and admiration for her and her team know no limits.

This is a woman, mother and wife who has dedicated her life to helping babies and children who would otherwise have no hope. 

She works tirelessly and selflessly to build a better life for those who have no voice.

She is beautiful. She is kind. She has the courage which I lack to actively engage with suffering and hardship every day. 

She does it with grace, compassion and love.

She does it when she has good days and when she has bad days; when the sun shines and when it rains; when she is feeling optimistic and when she is feeling hopeless – she continues to serve. 

Sanet and her team are a beacon of hope and light in a community that desperately needs it.

I would be so grateful if, for once, they could be served instead of serving, if they could receive, instead of giving. 

Thank you for considering this request.

The Mortgagor’s surrender: understanding the cession of rights in mortgage bonds

The Mortgagor’s surrender: understanding the cession of rights in mortgage bonds

Most people are familiar with the concept of transferring ownership of a tangible object– e.g., the sale of a car or home. But what happens when the subject of the transfer isn’t the object itself, but the right to that object? This is where the concept of cession comes into play. A cession agreement is a powerful legal mechanism that allows one person to transfer their personal right in an object to another, often as a means of securing the fulfilment of an obligation.

Property Owners! The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) Cut-Off Date Looms.

Property Owners! The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) Cut-Off Date Looms.

In a country where three-quarters of the national energy supply is still derived from coal, the urgency for sustainability and energy efficiency has never been greater. As South Africa works toward fulfilling its climate commitments—including the UN Climate Promise to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050—efforts to improve energy use across both public and private sectors have taken centre stage. A key initiative in this transition is the implementation of Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), introduced by the Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy and governed by the National Energy Act 34 of 2008.
