  The Charities

Gary Player Foundation:
The goal of The Player Foundation is to provide a well-rounded education to the many underprivileged children around the world. In addition to academics, the children are provided with meals, clothing, sporting activities, transportation to school and basic health care through the efforts of the Foundation.

Nelson Mandela Children's Fund:
The Nelson Mandela Children's Fund supports organizations implementing programmes and projects that empower children and youth from impoverished backgrounds to improve the quality of their lives. The Fund places emphasis on creative, innovative and participatory initiatives that have the potential to change the ways in which society responds to children and youth.


Marie Keating Foundation:
The Marie Keating Foundation has been established primarily to provide Breast Cancer Information and Awareness free of charge to the general public throughout the Republic of Ireland through three Mobile Cancer Information Units based in the Eastern, Western and Southern regions of Ireland. The three Mobile Cancer Information Units have been in operation since May 2001, and to date we have visited over 1,515 towns, villages and corporate sites in Ireland increasing breast cancer awareness by providing information to over 41,385 people.


In March 2005, we launched our Men's Keeping Fit Campaign to promote Prostate and Testicular Cancers. Our Units also carry information on other cancers including Bowel, Cervical, Lung, Ovarian and Skin. The Marie Keating Foundation funds Bursary's in Oncology and refurbishes Irish Hospital Oncology waiting rooms.
