YOUR DONATION IN ACTION
Thank you for your generous donation in support of the Time Out 4Africa Foundation. We have good news to share with you! With our hard work and your help, we were able to raise the most amount of money amongst the competing foundations in the Global Giving September Open Challenge. We also had the highest number of people to donate to our foundation. Over 500 donations were made. All of the accomplishments led to us being awarded the Global Giving 2014 Most Likely to Succeed Superlative Award.
This year, our basketball clinic was extended to an entire week of activities. We had over 400 kids and 10 secondary schools compete and attend the educational clinic throughout the week. 250 kids participated in the grand finale and award presentation ceremony. All attendees received a Time Out 4Africa drawstring bag with school supplies. Competition included interschool competition, free throw contest, 3 on 3 contests and 3 pointers. All winners received game jerseys, basketball sneakers, and basketballs. Trophies were awarded to the most improved player, most valuable player, and the winning secondary school. Additionally, over 300 Time Out 4Africa t-shirts were shared with parents, teachers, and community spectators.
Thanks again for helping us extend our work to reach more kids this year. You are helping us to change the lives of children and families.
