Continuing Education at the University of Pretoria activated a more structured Corporate Social Responsibility approach for 2008 which can contribute more progressive to the community. The entity also became part of an Enterprise Development Initiative to support upcoming SMME to enhance businesses and enrich the community.

CE at UP donated in December 2007 to Dung Beetle Printers cc, an upcoming business, by donating printing equipment to the value of R12 000. Dung Beetle Printers is located in Mamelodi, outside Pretoria and owned by Kabelo Rantho who is physically challenged.

The story of Kabelo Rantho is about an inspiring young man. After matriculated at Pretoria Boys High, he was involved in an unfortunate accident that left him severely handicapped and wheelchair bound. With perseverance and determination Kabelo overcame his setbacks and completed a Learnership which focused on developing entrepreneurs and consisted out of Skills programmes.
At present, Kabelo is the proud owner of his own printing business (Dung Beetle Printers cc) and could complete his offices with the support of CE at UP.

The entity enhances this opportunity for contributing to the community with commitment and an urgent sense of duty.
