He emphasized the importance of aspiring to be individuals who inspire others, emphasizing the ability of each person to instil confidence and inspire positive transformations in the lives of others.
Continued Commitment
Country Director, Viola Manuel, highlighted that although the Courage to Care Global project is nearing its end, MOT SA remains committed to continuing the MOT programme in the three Grassy Park schools.
During the meeting, we also took the opportunity to express our deep appreciation for the unwavering dedication of our MOT Coaches and Principals. Their relentless efforts in driving the Courage to Care Global project within schools and the broader community have been instrumental in moulding an environment where the MOT programme is embraced and loved. Their commitment to fostering personal growth and empowerment has made a lasting impact on the lives of countless individuals, and we are incredibly grateful for their hard work and passion.
