Trustees
The Laureus Sport for Good Foundation South Africa has been established as a not-for-profit Trust. One of its main objectives is to act as a conduit of funds to sport for development organisations that deliver Section 18A aligned activities and to monitor the application of these funds for the intended purposes.
The Trust is a registered Public Benefit Organization. The Board of Trustees governs the strategic directives of the Trust and its dedicated network of stakeholders. These include, but are not limited to, corporate funders, individual supporters, and a network of sports ambassadors at national and global level who invest their time and profile to advance the cause of sport for good. The Trustees meet quarterly to discuss issues of strategic relevance to the Trust, and they perform this duty of care and skill as a charitable service.
