the Power to Make A Difference (PMAD).
For more than a decade, using the Power to Make A Difference, we have continuously strengthened our resolve
to promote self-sufficiency and cultural literacy within
young adults, actively forged long-lasting bonds with leaders within national community, and helped bring about a
brighter vision for the future for many socially marginalised groups – one day, one initiative, one achievement
at a time.
Our Power to Make A Difference focuses on three specific areas:
• Development of young people through education,
sport and arts and culture.
• Poverty alleviation through training programmes for
at-risk youth and the provision of facilities for elderly
community members
• Helping differently-able persons and groups find their
place in the world.
In 2013, International Business Awards presented us with
the Stevie Award (Bronze) in the “Best Social Investment
Programme in South America” for our Power to Make
a Difference video. The award recognises the Power to
Make A Difference’s impact in enhancing the lives of
several communities and in providing opportunities for
at-risk young people.
Beyond the accolades, the real distinction of the Power
to Make A Difference comes from the constant inspiration to do more to help build the national community that
comes from the stories and successes of those men and
women whose lives have been positively changed.

leave this world a better place than we found it. Through

markets we serve.
