We are passionate about the game of golf, and we are just as passionate about giving back to the community.

South African Golf Development Board  

is a non-profit organization that has a network of coaches and officials that help develop the game of golf in the cities and many other remote areas in the country. They operate in 9 regions and have the capacity to coach 2500 children per week in these regions. Without the assistance of various sponsors and donors, the SAGDB would not be able to reach out to children and develop the game of golf. SAGDB has Section 18A Donation Tax Exemption status and we urge other corporates out there to support this wonderful cause! Your donation, no matter how small, will make an incredible difference, not only in the lives of these children, but also in the much needed development of our beloved game of golf!

Youth for Christ Knysna

is a Christian organization that invest full time in the development of Youth in Knysna and surrounding areas. If you were to spend a day in the shoes of one of their dedicated staff members, you will walk away a changed person. To step in and do everything they do with open arms and loving hearts the way they do it is truly something many of us can learn from. There is no such things as no, we can’t do it – they simply climb in and do what is required in aid of uplifting and supporting another fellow human being.

Carpe Diem School George

Carpe Diem School is a relatively young school which was founded on 15 July 2000. Carpe Diem was officially inaugurated on the 6th of August 2000 by the then acting minister of Education, mrs. Helen Zille. Prior to this, there was no school accessible to learners with intellectual-, physical or learning impairments other than the schools of skill which caters for the higher functioning older learners. That left lower functioning learners with no the option but to go to  Cape Town from a very young age for accessible education.
The school building, previously known as Kruinsig Childcare School, had to undergo extensive modifications and repairs for the establishment of the wonderful and accessible facility that is Carpe Diem School today.
