With the support of the Golden Arrow Bus company and drivers employed by the company, approximately 15000 children are
taken on educational outings every year. We at Grassroots co-ordinate these outings with the Golden Arrow Bus company and ECD projects throughout the City of Cape Town. We are happy to report that we have never had one bad incident over the years. Drivers always volunteer and we have never had an outing cancelled due to a lack of volunteerism! Keep in mind that the drivers come off a shift and then take the children out as an unpaid extra work shift. Our hero bus drivers tell us that it’s a pleasure to go out with the children. They feel special and honoured that they can contribute to society in this way.
