When travel restrictions
eased,
the Founder attended
a fund-raising
event
in the UK in person
(in May 2022). At these
events, the Founder spoke on the work of
the foundation
in South Africa, and his
sporting career with cricketing
contemporaries
from South Africa and
Gloucestershire.
The audience
included
local cricket clubs, cricket societies, and the
general
public.
This proved very successful
in fund raising terms, and resulted
in
generous
donations,
including
a significant
one —off legacy, flowing
into the
Foundation
(see financial
position
below).
This has also had benefits
in terms of
raising the Foundation's
profile
in the UK,
and will be followed
up with further
in
person fund raising events going forward.
The success ofthis fund-raising
will now
enable the Foundation
to gear up our
operations
in pursuit ofour objectives,
with
planning
for expansion
to a second school
taking place during the next reporting
period.
This funding
will also allow the
Foundation
to maintain
a reserve oftwice
annual
expenditure.
At the current rate of
expenditure
the Foundation
is aiming to
establish
reserves ofaround 633k going
forward.

as a periods when the Ottawa school was
closed due to both Covid 19and local
unrest

The sports coaching team underwent
some
changes
during the year under the
supervision
ofthe lead coach (who has not
changed)
and a revised team ofcoaches
is
now active again.
Ongoing
payment
ofthe
coaches' salaries during the periods that
the school was closed (see above)
provided
an important
source of income
locally.
The coaches are providing
regular
sports and cricket coaching for the children,
which is a part ofthe curriculum
that is
much appreciated
by the Ottawa school
governing
board and headmistress
and
deputy
head mistress.
In addition to the assistance above, the
charity has built up an income stream to be
able to fund the annual
payments
to the
coaches at the Ottawa school on an
ongoing basis. The charity has also been
able to plan to expand the coaching
activities to a second school in the area,
the Solomon
Mahlangu
Primary School in
Cornubia,
Durban
(this took place outside
the reporting
period with the recruitment
of
two additional
coaches in January 2023).
This rounded
package of welfare benefits
that are provided
at Ottawa
will thus now
be expanded
to a second school in Durban.
With the present
level offund raising,
payment
ofcoaches expenses at both
schools
in Durban can be sustained
into
the future.
