In December 2023, Hope for Youth South Africa, with the generous support of corporate and private sponsors such as Synercore Holdings, Tessara, Eighty 20 Consulting, and individual donors, distributed 300 Christmas gifts to children in vulnerable and less fortunate areas. Synercore Holdings took the lead by sponsoring 200 gift boxes, while other contributors pitched in to provide an additional 100 boxes, each filled with essential items for the young recipients.
The positive impact of this initiative was profound, bringing joy and much-needed goods to children facing challenging circumstances. The 300 Christmas gifts served as a reminder of the power of collective efforts in making a difference in the lives of those less fortunate.
Building on the success of the previous year, Hope for Youth South Africa aims to amplify their impact in 2024. The organization is challenging corporate South Africa to join forces and contribute to the distribution of 1000 gift boxes " Box of Hope" to 1000 children in the Western Cape. This ambitious goal reflects the commitment to creating a lasting impact on the lives of vulnerable youth during the festive season.
Hope for Youth South Africa is no stranger to making a difference, impacting a minimum of 2500 kids monthly through their life-changing programs. Many of these children come from extremely challenging and impoverished backgrounds. The Gift Box initiative stands out as a heartwarming way to bring smiles to these children's faces during Christmas.
The cost of sponsoring a gift box for a child is R250, covering basic stationery, toiletries, clothes, a toy, and something sweet. By supporting this initiative, individuals and corporations alike can embody the change they wish to see in the world.
For those interested in getting involved, Hope for Youth South Africa invites supporters to make it a team-building session by assisting in packing the gift boxes in November 2024 before distribution. Companies, organizations, and individuals are encouraged to contact Hope for Youth South Africa at admin@hopeforyouthsouthafrica.co.za to arrange sponsorships of goods, services, or monetary donations.
As a Section 18A PBO conduit, Hope for Youth South Africa can issue tax-deductible certificates for donations, providing an additional incentive for supporters to contribute to this meaningful cause. Together, as a community, there is immense potential to do so much more and create a brighter, more hopeful future for these deserving children.
