DONATIONS NOW TAX DEDUCTIBLE

Prison Broadcasting Network is now an approved Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) with section 18A status. All donations are now TAX DEDUCTIBLE! You will need a Donor 18A receipt from us to claim a tax deduction so please let us know if you need one as we require specific details from you in order to issue a receipt. We trust this will make a difference to your giving and thank you for your support.

A FIRM FOUNDATION for 2010

We have made some major exciting changes to strengthen our core for 2010! Our constitution was completely revamped to align ourselves as a Public Benefit Organisation. We have a new much larger Management Board of 7 members and established an offical Advisory Board of 15 people. Bruce Wade, owner of Entrepreneur Incubator, has taken up the helm as our new Chairman and Correctional Services are now very much involved with Olga Dayimani (Head of Medium B in Pollsmoor) and Sabelo Mzanywa (Director of Development and Care Pollsmoor) taking up their roles on our Management and Advisory Board levels respectively. We will continue training the offedners in Television Production this year but additional exciting developments include a dedicated prison television station and an outside video production company that will employ ex-offenders. All in all this will be a year to remember!
