Trustco scores another knock-out!
For the second year running, the Trustco-sponsored Kyokushin Karate All Africa Open Championships 2020 was a major success! Participants from junior level ( as young as 4 years old ) up to masters’ level went all out to establish individual supremacy in their respective categories on Saturday 14th March at the Safari Hotel. We have seen an upshot in terms of entries and the quality of fights in 2020, showing Trustco’s propensity for investing in progressive CSR activities nationwide. With this being one of the last public sporting gatherings due to the current global shut down due to the corona pandemic, it was nevertheless a resounding success. Congratulations to all the participants.
Trustco Group choppered into the hearts of senior citizens of Namibia by teaming up with the Namibia Civil Aviation Authority (NCCA). The senior citizens were treated to helicopter rides over the capital city, Windhoek, on the 1st of October, celebrating the “International Day for Older Persons”. It was indeed a memorable day for many of our senior citizens, who were selected from various homes for the elderly, and who experienced their very first ride ever in a helicopter! All those who attended the opportunity were witness to the high level of safety standards associated with aviation in Namibia. Pictured here is Trustco’s Head of Public Relations and Corporate Communication, Neville Basson, and Head of Trustco Media, Jaco Klynsmith, with senior citizens from all over the Khomas region.
CELEBRATING 21 YEARS OF TRUSTCO
As part of the Group’s 21st Celebrations, Trustco sponsored the Trustco’s Star Performer, the first ever nationwide talent-search competition in Namibia. The long and incredible journey over seven months created an artistic platform for upcoming young artists and allowed them to showcase their talent to the Namibian nation and the world at large. Trustco’s main sponsorship worth more than NAD4 million made it possible for artistic expression to prevail.
This was indeed an incredible journey for the top 26 finalists who shared a single dream of joining world renowned performers in various categories such as drama, instrumental, vocal, dance, modelling and fashion design. Eight winners were selected by professional judges to represent the country on the international stage when they visited Orlando Florida, USA in December 2013. The Trustco’s Star Performer title was awarded to the overall winner, Vocal Dynamics, which is an a cappella group. The group received a fantastic cash prize of NAD250 000, proudly sponsored by Trustco.
