Our Dream
We have a dream to see all children given an equal opportunity to learn and thrive in their academic and sporting abilities.
We want to see schools in the communities with high quality training facilities, programmes and equipment. We want to see clear academic and sporting pathways from childhood to career. We want to see equitable access to opportunities for children to excel in academic, sporting and recreational activities within their communities.
Our Mission
Our mission is to use sport as a tool to support the children in the Nelson Mandela Bay area in breaking the poverty cycle and transforming their lives for good.
Our Programmes in South Africa are implemented through our Pathway to Success Model, which has been developed over the past 20 years in response to the needs of the disadvantaged communities where we work.
