Competition: Win a Domains.co.za Kit for the Discovery 947 Ride Joburg

On Sunday 17 November thousands will flock to partake in the Discovery 947 Ride Joburg competition. While this challenge might go by a new name this year it is still the same gruelling and addictive “Cycle Challenge” we’ve come to love. This year the route will once again be in reverse, as it proved to be quite popular last year.  NEW: Discovery joins the challenge as part of their commitment to getting 100-million people 20% more active by 2025.

That’s why we’ve introduced innovative and informal brainstorming and meeting hubs at the office where we get to stand and move [...]

Domains.co.za is supporting Slipper Day: 10 May!

This Friday 10 May marks the annual celebration of the Reach For A Dream Foundation’s (RFAD) annual Slipper Day. This initiative is aimed at gaining support and awareness for children with life-threatening illnesses in a fun and positive manor: by wearing slippers to work, school etc. Participants can purchase a wristband for R10 at Wimpy, Pick ‘n Pay or Dischem. The Reach For A Dream Foundation’s main goal is to realise dreams of kids with illnesses such as cancer in an attempt to give them encouragement and hope. The campaign’s slogan of “Not all heroes wear capes” is extremely fitting. In multiple hospitals (and at home) many children are fighting for their lives and are heroes in the hearts of those near to them. At Domains.co.za, we [...]
