Personal message

Support the Newborns Trust Optimist dinghy in The Great Optimist Race and help us not only make it first across the finishing line, but also onto the Fundraising Leaderboard. We will be raising funds for The Little Optimist Trust and the Newborns Trust.

The Newborns Trust aims to improve the lives of newborn babies and their families at a provincial and national level by supporting the Neonatal Unit at Groote Schuur Hospital in its function as a clinical model, academic resource and national centre of excellence.

We are proud to announce that our Optimist dinghy will be skippered by the formidable Scarra Ntubeni, Stormers and Western Province rugby player by day, Newborns super hero by night!

The  Great Optimist Race 2019 will be held during the Cape Town International Boat Show, on October 29th. 15 Optimist Children’s dinghies will be raced by adults ( Celebrities, Medical Survivors & Captains of Industry)  not only for glory, but also to raise money and awareness for the charity of their choice . The Race will be a FANTASTIC and UNIQUE fundraising event , spreading Optimism and Hope across so many sectors. All the funds raised by each boat will be split between The Little Optimist Trust and the charity supported by that boat. 

The event will take place at the V & A Waterfront so come down to support your boat and see who walks away with the coveted trophy.
