Hollywoodbets Collaborations and Partnerships
The Hollywood Group believes in making a difference in our communities and, between 2019/2020, they helped 306 charitable organisations, 250 development sports teams, and 24 SMMEs through their My Community Program.
Hugely supporting the need for education, we worked with Nomzamo Mbatha’s Lighthouse Foundation to create the Brighter Future Project. In addition to that, our Team responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by partnering with 72 organisations and launching relief efforts to provide 5 570 COVID-19 relief parcels that included personal protective equipment and helped feed 22 280 South Africans in need.
This saw R1.35 million going to NPOs and NGOs across South Africa, including a contribution to the Solidarity Fund as well as theNelson Mandela Foundation.
We also believe in helping develop talent that aligns perfectly with the ethos of their various Brand Ambassadors, like Jerry Sikhosana and Brian Baloyi, who joined the team in 2016 and 2017, respectively, and are both passionate about making a difference in communities.
We’ve also collaborated with Phaka by sponsoring development rugby teams around South Africa. In 2019, Odwa and Akona Ndungane also joined their Purple Family as Brand Ambassadors to assist with various community projects.
In 2020, we also welcomed retired jockey Anthony Delpech to the team who is excited to work with us on future social initiatives. In partnership with Gold Circle, the Grooms’ Initiative was created to award the winning groom from every KwaZulu-Natal race meeting with a R1 000 incentive.
Hollywoodbets has a heavy presence in the KwaZulu-Natal sporting scene and is currently known as the title sponsor of the provincial Hollywoodbets Dolphins cricket team as well as the Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium (Durban), Hollywoodbets Greyville Racecourse (Durban) and Hollywoodbets Scottsville Racecourse (Pietermaritzburg).
We were also excited to announce our associate sponsorship of the provincial rugby franchise,The Sharks. In 2020, we got our first real taste of international sponsorships when we became the Official Betting Partner ofBrentford Football Club in the UK, and sponsors of Dundalk Stadium, Ireland’s only all-weather racetrack.
