I’m excited to introduce Rise, a groundbreaking theatrical production that tackles bullying head-on. Designed to inspire and empower school audiences, this immersive experience spreads a vital message: united, we can rise above bullying. With 57% of South African students affected by bullying, this initiative is more than a show—it’s a movement. Created in collaboration with psychologist Geraldine van Heerden, Rise authentically addresses different forms of bullying, fostering empathy and understanding in young audiences. By sponsoring this production in schools, your company will: - Invest in a powerful educational tool that creates lasting change. - Demonstrate a commitment to social responsibility and community well-being. - Leverage your CSI or marketing budget for a cause that impacts the next generation. As a non-profit organization, we can issue a Section 18A Tax Certificate for your contribution, providing tax benefits while amplifying your impact. We’d love to schedule a meeting to explore how we can partner to bring Rise to schools across South Africa. Please watch the attached promotional video to see this transformative initiative in action. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to collaborating with you to empower South African learners. Best regards, Jaco Verwey (Co-Founder)
