Durban Floods
During the devasting Durban floods in 2021, SkyNet Worldwide Express realised that getting much needed supplies to families in Durban will only be possible through a well-coordinated plan. Challenging corporate South Africa to get involved, 120 tons of food, cleaning and other products were delivered to SkyNet’s head office in Elandsfontein.
What was initially intended to be a truck with product, landed up being 4 charted aeroplanes delivering 8,000 food parcels to the communities in Durban.
