Oak Group sponsor CoolPlay

Over the past two years, Guernsey Finance has built a meaningful collaboration with CoolPlay, a South African organisation that leverages the unifying power of sport to positively transform the lives of underprivileged children. This partnership culminates in the highly anticipated annual event at Cape Town's Kelvin Grove, attracting 300 distinguished guests from the financial sector. 

This charity is particularly significant to Oak Group’s founder, Mark Chasey, and reflects the company’s unwavering commitment to community-driven initiatives and fostering positive social change. Oak’s sponsorship will provide crucial resources and support, furthering CoolPlay’s mission to empower young people and strengthen communities. 

In addition to the sponsorship, Oak and Canaccord have donated 300 balls to the local community. 

Scott McPherson, Oak’s Director of Trust & Corporate commented: 

"We are honoured to partner with CoolPlay and be a part of their incredible journey. This sponsorship aligns perfectly with our values and dedication to making a meaningful impact on society. We look forward to witnessing the positive outcomes this collaboration will bring."
