Mango July 2009 newsletter
Here's the Mango newsletter I received on 30 Jun 2009:
Dear Mango Guest,
This year's celebration of the beautiful game showed that South Africa is able to host some of the world's top sporting events, we have won the British and Irish Lions tour, and it's also the Vodacom Durban July this month. This year Mango is the official airline for one of South Africa's most prestigious sporting events. We even have a feature race on the day, the Mango Handicap!
South Africa has fast become an international sporting hub with a string of high profile international events coming our way. We also cannot forget about tomorrow's stars, and Mango, along with our partner Tempest recently sponsored our 52nd school with Dreambags, coupled with a 16 school round robin tournament at Ajax Cape Town's home ground. The Deamfields (www.dreamfields.org.za) initiative provides Dreambag soccer kit to underprivileged and not only plays a pivotal role in youth development, but harnesses the universal unifying power of sport to make a positive contribution to generation next.
