Thank you for supporting vulnerable children through sports in South Africa! With your support, we have officially launched a weekly sports day at local primary schools!
Prior to the launch, the local primary schools had limited organized sports offerings and few interactions with other schools in the communities. The children at the schools were very eager to get involved in sports but had limited opportunities to do so. This inspired us to launch a once-a-week sports day where children can take part in an organized sports day after school. They are provided with a safe space where they have fun with their peers, meet new children and contribute to community development and social cohesion. The children take part in netball, rugby, football, and rugby games once a week and they love it!
It has been a resounding success, the children have really enjoyed the sports day and it has brought the community together in a positive way.
Thank you for supporting us to bring sport to vulnerable children in Nelson Mandela Bay!
