Community Sport Day

Aussenkehr Sport Event: Since inception of the Capespan’s relationship with the National Youth Services (NYS), owner of the Namibia Grape Company farm, Capespan supported the Capespan Foundation’s mandate; “To uplift communities and improve the quality of lives for people working in areas where the company operate”. Towards the end of 2008 Capespan received a request from NGC farm workers to fund sport kit and prize money to elevate their informal sport event planned for September 2008. Since 2008 the NGC farm and the NGC Trust, have been supporting this event annually by donating sport kit and prize money awarded to the top three teams in Soccer, Netball and Volleyball respectively. A large number of Table grape production farms operating from the Aussenkehr Valley participated in this event. Donation value NAD$30,000.
