Izak Davel is best known for his character, Scab, in the popular soap, Egoli. Apart from being a well-known actor and singer, Izak was arguably the most talked about celebrity in Survivor South Africa: Santa Carolina, thanks in part to his now infamous red Speedo. Stephen Segal, Mr. South Africa 2009 and star of Manhunt, is also excited to be representing The Smile Foundation in the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge.

The Smile Foundation’s passion has always been to help impoverished and facially disfigured children by assisting them to receive the much needed surgery that they would not otherwise be able to afford. The organisation sponsored around 200 children through its activities during this past year. These surgeries were performed across 6 State Academic Hospitals that partner with The Smile Foundation in correcting these children’s facial anomalies

All the money raised through the 94.7 Cycle Challenge and by Izak on BackaBuddy will be used by The Smile Foundation for operations on children suffering from facial anomalies. Children’s facial deformities will be corrected in a child-friendly environment, and The Smile Foundation will use its relationship with academic hospitals to engender a child friendly culture, best practices, and Smile Foundation standards.
