Established in 2008, the Raising Giants Organization (RGO) stands as a beacon of commitment to nurturing the upcoming generation of African leaders across a spectrum of disciplines, encompassing careers, entrepreneurship, sports, and arts & culture. Our path has been adorned with notable triumphs, such as the esteemed Gauteng Premiers' Excellence Award in 2019 and the distinguished SA Heroes Awards in 2020.
Presently, we embark on a pivotal undertaking, reaching out to you for support in shaping our next Cohort. Our focus is on identifying young minds entering grade 5 and Grade 6 in 2024, residing in villages. These boys and girls will participate in transformative camps throughout 2024, spanning from Sunday (Day of Travel) to Friday (Day of Travel). Tentative date for 1st camp in 2024 is in March. Camp costs and transport costs will be covered by the organization. The request is that parents/guardians support the giants with necessities such as bedding and clothing. The overarching objective is to engage with these youths over the next 8 to 10 years, imparting exposure, skills, and mentorship to sculpt them into giants poised to instigate positive change in their villages. Furthermore, the selected youths will actively contribute to diverse community projects as guided by our organization.
