In the current economic situation we as South Africans are finding ourselves it is not an easy decision to give away money, which is the reason why it is just a beautiful site to see people giving money to charities. I know each of my sponsors personally and not one of the sponsors has money to throw around, but they all wanted to help this great cause we as Mr South Africa semi finalists are supporting.
Here is a little bit more information about the companies that supported me and The Chrysalis Foundation through the competition.
MapIT

West Coast Aqua Culture
West Coast Aquaculture is an Oyster and Mussel farm located in the inner bay of Saldanha Bay. We operate from Pepperbay where our boat leaves every morning between 06:00 and 07:00 for the farm. We harvest and grade by hand which result in an excellent quality handpicked product. The farm has been in existence for close on 10 years but has been operating as West Coast Aquaculture since 14 April 2008. Currently we harvest a yield of more than 200 ton mussels per annum and we have approximately 300 000 oysters in the water. We supply our Mussels as a fresh live product or as a cleaned par cooked frozen product. Our Oysters are currently only supplied as a fresh live product.
