Disadvantaged school kids in Montague were treated to an inspiring soccer session with local stars last week when the Laser Group launched its commitment to the ‘Let’s Play a Million Campaign’. In true sporting spirit in the run-up to FIFA 2010, Laser has announced its sponsorship of R250 000 that will ensure the distribution of 10 000 soccer balls for needy primary schools around the country. Laser has partnered with SuperSport’s ‘Let’s Play a Million Campaign’ – a joint initiative with Unicef and the Department of Education’s Sport for Development campaign. Said Laser’s CEO Philip Hayes: “All kids love sport and we are hopefully providing them with an alternative to the crime and other social ills in their communities.”
