Why did you feel it was necessary to do this?

As an African focused mining company that believes that Africa and its people are the cornerstone of our business, we thought it appropriate to support an effort to impact on a disease that affects our people, their families and the communities we are involved with. We also identify with the entrepreneurial nature of Kingsley’s expeditions in the way we explore and do business in Africa.

Gemini-Marine

GEMINI MARINE has supported Kingsley's adventures since his first expedition when he followed the African rift from Cape Town to Cairo.

Gemini provided customised expeditionary boats that were required. GEMINI did so with pride in the knowledge that they were supporting the excellent humanitarian contributions that the Holgate family and their crew were making to people in need. At the same time, who better than Kingsley Holgate to put our GEMINI boats to the ultimate test. Together with GEMINI & Yamaha the Holgates can now reach the unreachable and get in contact with the Africans in need on the smaller villages.

Gemini is honoured to be involved with the Holgates.

Our investment in Kingsley is one way that we as Yamaha Distributors can reinvest in the humanitarian effort which affects our customer base which is Southern Africa. The products that we’ve provided him with, enables Kingsley to have access over the water to so many small villages and the generator gives him the ability to communicate with modern technology to the world.

The GPS information gathered by the expedition is submitted to USAID, this augments “Saving Lives through Adventure”, should nets need to be replenished this can be done as the dates and location have been recorded.

We sponsored 2 x GPSMAP 276’s and a smaller Quest SA for when they need the versatility of a motor vehicle and a handheld device as well as a donation of R50 000, 00 towards the purchase of more nets.
