PLeace Awaken PBO South Africa

 

 

Africa

PLeace Awaken PBO, a fully tax-exempt and B-BBEE certified Public Benefit Organization based in Johannesburg, was founded in 2017 in response to the brutal crime and gender-based violence gripping the country. After four successful international golf tournaments with groundbreaking roundtables on the prevention of crime, gender equality and the rising mental health problems resulting from Covid-19, we decided to launch some pioneering pilot projects set to start in 2024/25.

Correspondence Program - The PLeace Golf Academy, an educational program currently being developed out of our roundtable materials alongside our luminaries to offer a basic program on human rights, the environment, climate action and other issues concerning the global community. The programs will be prepared in different formats varying in duration and depth for different demographics such as business, schools or families, and depending on the desired credentials and qualifications.

PLeace Golf Ladies! - The PLeace Golf Academy is an initiative for women and girls as well as growing young men to find empowerment through learning golf and strong mentorship to battle the global rise of gender driven and mental health related violence. We're bringing strong role models together in a mentorship program for women and children from fragile social settings to teach them golf in an uplifting setting and to raise awareness for both women and men to seek help. We're collaborating with organizations in five continents to assure this campaign really produces change.

PLeace Awaken Vocational School - For those that the Pleace Golf mentorship program is not enough to get themselves out of their abusive relationship, mainly mothers with young children, we're setting up a vocational boarding academy with its own school for the children. The women get a safe haven in which to build a foundation of independence, knowing their children are looked after and educated themselves at the same time. The ladies will be working towards Career Diplomas in specialized courses of study with hands-on skill development in a vast variety of fields and professions related to healthcare, technology, business, beauty, entertainment and creative arts, while getting a world-class overall education in skills like accounting, creative writing, foreign correspondence, etc., to ensure employment opportunities in their field of choice after graduation.

PLeace Golf Caddy Academy (Vocational program for men) - For the men in need, abusive partners, abuse victims and those in emotional or economic distress, we're organizing a caddy program teaching them the ropes of the golf industry and putting them through a mental coach and anger management training. From this first qualification, we'll be offering further vocational programs and certifications into other professions.

Education for prisons - We are looking to make all educational programs of the PLeace Awaken Academy available to inmates, to assist in their rehabilitation as valuable contributors to society. The foundation of all PLeace Awaken educational programs is a basic knowledge of Human rights, environmental concerns and nature conservation along with training objectives based on sustainability and futuristic technology.

Public Safety & Security - Once a year, PLeace Awaken hosts an international celebrity golf event to raise awareness on gender and mental health related violence and the highly violent crime in South Africa in general with a panel discussion of experts with solution approaches to this concern. In conjunction with this and in cooperation with other charities and organizations, we are relaunching our free-of-charge app and web site to help people in distress and immediate danger with access to local embassies, emergency hotlines and an anonymous geo-tracking system to alert the police and closest app users and security professionals.

Golf Development - We are also working closely together with international golfing governing bodies to further promote the sport not only physical and mental well-being but also as a means of communication, a bridge of culture and powerful tool for change.

Sustainable Energy & Environmental Restoration - In conjunction with our vocational school, we're looking to set up pilot projects of new environment friendly energy technologies, sustainable farming and nature restoration solutions.
