Partnering with Laureus South Africa for Youth Empowerment

March 2024

We had the opportunity to spend an afternoon with the team from Laureus South Africa on the 4th of a 5 day workshop in Noordhoek, as part of their 2024 YES Programme (Youth Empowerment through Sport).

What an inspirational afternoon! Thank you to Marlene Coetzee-George and her team for the warm welcome and including us in the afternoon. In this group of twenty participants in the 2024 YES programme, are 10 representatives from various Waitrose Foundation grower partners in the Western Cape and Northern Cape. We are proud to be supporting such an impactful initiative, empowering our Youth for future career success and personal growth. Laureus Sport For Good supports more than 300 programmes in over 40 countries and territories, each using the power of sport to support young people from various communities.
