Celebrating Mandela Day by Giving Back with On South Africa

Tifosi Sports and On South Africa brought smiles to a group of underprivileged girls this Mandela Day with a special donation of premium On running shoes.

Empowering Young Girls Through Community Support

This year, Tifosi Sports and On South Africa donated nine pairs of On shoes to The House Group, facilitated by the team at Greenlight Education.

The House Group (A Safe Haven for Vulnerable Girls)

The House Group is a care home for girls aged 10 to 16 who have come from abusive or neglectful backgrounds. It offers a secure, nurturing environment where they can access education, regular meals, and emotional support.

Greenlight Education (Empowering Through STEM and Life Skills)

Greenlight Education is a non-profit focused on STEM education and youth development. Their work with The House Group includes life skills training and sourcing essential donations such as food and clothing.

A Special Delivery

On 13 July 2023, the shoes were handed to Tammy Pillay, director of Greenlight Education, who distributed them to the girls at The House Group.

The girls received their new On shoes on 16 July 2023 and were thrilled—describing the experience as like "walking on clouds". We hope these shoes inspire them to continue going beyond every day.

Standing Behind All Champions

At Tifosi Sports, we believe champions come in many forms—not just athletes or competitors. The girls at The House Group are champions of resilience, and we're proud to support their journey.
