About Kas’lam
The Sanlam Kas’lam initiative is one of the many ways Sanlam is responding to the challenges in our country. It is our way of demonstrating commitment to the growth and development of our country, one township at a time. We want people to thrive through our four key pillars of focus, namely: business, infrastructure, education, as well as safety and security. Our approach is very practical – we make sure that we provide sustainable and tangible, on-the-ground solutions that visibly improve the lives of individuals, businesses and communities eKasi.
Kas’lam is a way for us to invest eKasi. We’re celebrating the township economy by feeding back into communities however we can. While we began by plugging into businesses making sure people #BuyeKasi, our recent initiative is to keep iKasi flowing by placing back-up water systems in schools. This is just the beginning.
