2. Donate your time and skills
Motivational speakers The JAG Foundation is always on the lookout for guest speakers at the selected JAG events at the JAG schools and initiatives. JAG wants to encourage children they can achieve anything they want by setting their goals. Having an opportunity to listen to a motivational speaker can be very powerful as these individuals are often true role models for our children. Sharing how your life can change by succeeding in sport, academically or in business encourages children to make the right choices for themselves. Events/volunteer
For JAG’s exciting sporting events, enthusiastic and energetic helpers are always required and welcome.
Transport
Transport to and from a sporting event is often a financial challenge with having 26,000 children on the JAG programmes. The JAG Foundation would highly appreciate complimentary transport for the children. If you can support JAG with offering transport please get in touch. Get involved now.
3. From pre-loved to re-loved
The JAG pre-loved to re-loved campaign is a second hand sporting items collection initiative, which involves collecting sporting items which were once loved and used and handing it over to those less fortunate who will make great use of them.
The pre-loved to re-loved campaign has been very successful to date and JAG Foundation thanks all the schools which have been very generous in their involvement.

My request for our children at my school. MItchell’s Plain school of skills. Many of our learners are poor and gets choosen to participate in National Games but can’t even afford to purchase new takkies or a tracksuit. Is there anyway you can assist us.
Hi Celia, we understand the challenge in the communities out there with regards to equipment for kids etc. As we are a charity organisation ourselves we are also reliant on funds to ensure that our JAG programmes we have function and we look after the kids on our programmes. We currently have 4 programmes running in the Mitchell’s area. Good luck and all the best with the great work you are doing. (Using sport as a catalyst for change)
How does one initiate Mighty Meters and/or ProNutro Runners in a community such as Hangberg, Hout Bay? We have people in the community that are willing to support the programme but don’t know where to start – E.g. do we create a team and then look for a corporate sponsor that can adopt the team? What are the requirements to create a team?
Further to Celia’s request – can you maybe explain to her how she can set up her own team at her school OR shoudl she join the other teams that are operating in Mitchells Plain – and how does one “join” a team.
Thanks, Marquerithe
