Our annual report pays testament to the impact that the hard work and commitment of the SoHK
team have realised in 2023. Across our three programmes, SoHK’s coaches work with boys and girls,
men and women, helping these participants to be better placed to realise their potential, to be better
placed to address the trauma and mental health challenges that they face. Personally speaking, it is
a great privilege to be part of our work with our participants, and to be part of this empathetic and
dedicated team, a team that inspires me daily.
While we are proud of what we have been able to realise this year, we recognise the increasing need
for mental health support in South Africa, and that this requires that we expand our programming,
while maintaining the high standards that we have set - or, hopefully, by raising the bar even higher.
We intend to grow sustainably in the coming years and ensure that, however many people we are
reaching, our organisational values of excellence and empathy shine through.
The SoHK delivery team is fortunate to have been supported by a dedicated and thorough Board of
Directors, each of whom willingly volunteers their time. This commitment is deeply appreciated. And,
of course, none of work would be possible without the support we receive from our partners and
funders. We are appreciative of every contribution, and we take seriously our obligation to use the
donations that we receive efficiently and effectively, to realise real change in our societies.
