Saving the World Cup

The 2010 World Cup will be the biggest sports event Africa has ever hosted. South Africa will be in the focus of the world.

But there are a few roadblocks: Would you agree that it is hard to cheer in the wake of 5 million HIV infected and 1.2 million orphans as a result of the HIV/AIDS pandemic?

Any celebration taking place today would be overshadowed by widespread violence and rape leaving many people traumatized.

It was a great pleasure to meet Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu during his visit in Denver.

We are getting ready for our first cause marketing initiative. More information coming soon!

Our unique approach

We combine creative cause marketing in Europe and the United States in unique ways with the requirements and challenges of local organizations in South Africa.

Web 2.0 and social media will be used to its fullest extend to keep you posted on our initiatives and to demonstrate the progress in the projects we support.

Our main objectives

	Promoting gender equality
	Rape prevention & female empowerment
	Post-rape care for victims
	Orphan support
	Providing access to financial independence

This list could be continued but we feel that these areas need to be addressed before it is even worth looking any further.

Looking at an amazing challenge

Despite all its problems "New South Africa" has a great story to tell. The 2010 Soccer World Cup has the potential to surprise the skeptics of this country.

We have seen a tremendous bonding experience in Germany in 2006 during the last World Cup. South Africa deserves the same kind of event. Let's all get started!
