ABOUT CHAMPIONS 4 CHARITY

Are you ready to rumble?

Well, then suit up for the charity boxing event of the year!

When: 05 August 2023

Where: Royal Elephant Hotel (Centurion, Pretoria)

If you are familiar with the PIRB, you will know that the PIRB is a Non-Profit Organisation (NPO), officially recognised by SAQA as the Professional Body for the plumbing industry in South Africa. The PIRB is dedicated to promote and improve the quality of plumbing practices in South Africa and aims to protect its integrity and practices for all persons working in or with the plumbing industry.

The PIRB constantly searches for ways to provide and contribute to efforts that add to the development and growth of our country. The PIRB is therefore very proud to present the annual Champions 4 Charity (C4C) event, taking place on Saturday the 5th of August 2023 at the Royal Elephant Hotel. This initiative aims to raise funds for charities in desperate need of donations and support in South Africa.

This black-tie event will be hosted by the PIRB for the 4th year in a row and every year it seems to be punching bigger and harder hits into society. The coming year we will be doing exactly that. The plumbing industry’s role players will be part of this initiative to show their support and involvement in charity and will contribute to the upliftment of the plumbing industry and their community as a whole.

During the evening of the event, guests will be greeted by our friendly PIRB staff accompanied by a welcome drink to enjoy on arrival. A formal dinner will be served during the evening, while being seated at tastefully decorated tables in close vicinity to the professional boxing ring. Guests will therefore have front row seats to the white-collar boxing matches between various South African plumbing industry representatives as well as a professional match between two well-experienced and professional boxers. The 2023 event will also feature 3 South African musicians to entertain guests throughout the evening.

All the proceeds raised during this charity event through the sale of sponsorship packages & tickets, will be donated towards the charities that are represented by each boxing contender. In this way Nelson Mandela month can be celebrated in a way that Madiba himself can be proud of.

A champion shows who he is by what he does when he’s tested. When a person gets up and says ‘I can still do it’, he’s a champion
