Testimonials

"Carole, my dear child, you give back so much of yourself to others. A nation without health is a nation without hope. Thanks to you and to all the Canadian supporters the Phelophepa train continues to bring hope to so many people."
Archbishop Desmond Tutu

"I have attended several private and charity events organized by Carole Adriaans & Associates. Carole has the ability to create magic in high-level dinners, conferences and balls that demand impeccable attention to protocol and form as well as small intimate affairs that hit just the right note with client requirement. As a former diplomat, I have attended many world-class events and am confident in stating that Carole's work reflects a choice of speaker, entertainment and appropriate décor that bring a distinctly magical flavour to her events.
I particularly recall her South African Women for Women Awards Ceremonies that blew me away with the level of dignitary participation, world class entertainment and huge attendee management. Her events around the Opera production "Passion for Winnie" asked not only the presentation of multiple events but also intense media interaction and crisis management.
Ms. Adriaans with her vast support network never loses her cool and the job always gets done. She is above all a person who can '...walk with kings, nor lose the common touch...' - I would strongly recommend her expertise."
Rodger Harding International & Associates

"On behalf of the chair and directors of the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund (Canada), please accept my profound thanks for the wonderful contribution you made to make this event a stunning success! ... Many of our sponsors took particular note of the high level of seamless efficiency, which resulted in a superior and impactful experience. You have made it easier for us to secure their support next year."
Mark Beckles, President & CEO
Nelson Mandela Children's Fund (Canada)

"Over the years we have got to know Carole Adriaans and her organization well and find her to be a lot like Canada itself: successful, efficient and with a big heart for good causes. The services she renders to the country of her birth are remarkable and her commitment to issues that affect women has led to better lives for thousands of South Africans. We are deeply grateful for that.
Carole's great strength is her ability is to understand the needs of organizations and then to identify how best to mobilise human and material resources to meet those requirements. We have seen her organize with great ease, a scintillating gala occasion with high society and a benefit concert with world class musicians. We have also marvelled at her personal involvement in all aspects of the projects she has managed and the great care she took in organising even the humblest of projects such a simple briefing for visiting officials. Her track record is impressive indeed."
