MADAboutArt (MAD) operates an HIV education centre in the township of Neckies, near Knysna.  Their HIV and empowerment programme for children and young people uses art-based and narrative therapy interventions and experiential learning to build knowledge, skills and confidence.

In 2009, TackleAfrica began working with MAD in order to add a football programme to attract more young people to MAD’s services.   Together, TackleAfrica and MAD run football tournaments and coaching sessions within local communities to deliver HIV messages through football coaching sessions.   MAD have also added an innovation to TackleAfrica’s work by creating HIV costumes for use in TackleAfrica drills.
