Silent Auction and Raffle at Presentation Day

Check out the fantastic donations we have received for the silent auction and raffle we are running at our annual Presentation Day!

We are raising money for a basketball court in Yirol, South Sudan and supporting our Community Liaison project. 

Last year we raised money to help our Community Liaison Officer, Akech Manyiel, restore a basketball court in his home village of Yirol in South Sudan.

Unfortunately fighting broke out in South Sudan, so whilst Akech managed to get to his village and to see his mother for the first time in 27 years, he was only able to stay for a few days and wasn’t able to work on the basketball court due to security issues.

So this Summer he plans to go back to spend time with his mother and get started on restoring the court. Some of the money we raise will assist Akech with purchasing materials such as poles, backboards, rims, cement and bricks so that the people in Yirol can play basketball. Yirol officials see sport as a way to engage local youth and build peace between parties, so this is a really important development for the town.

All funds raised from the raffle and silent auction will be put towards the basketball court in South Sudan and our community liaison project.
