Haakon’s Spend.Win.Give Story: Turning a Prize into Purpose.

At Karri, we believe some of life’s most meaningful lessons happen through real experiences - and Haakon’s story is a wonderful example of that.

‍

Haakon, one of our inspiring Spend.Win.Give winners, recently received R1,000 on his Karri Card, plus an additional R1,000 to donate to a charity of his choice. He chose Woodrock Animal Rescue - a cause close to his heart.

‍

It was a special handover moment at The Ridge School, where Haakon proudly presented the donation using our giant Karri Card. More than just a memorable occasion, it was a powerful reminder of the difference young people can make when they are given the opportunity to lead with kindness and generosity.

‍

Haakon’s decision not only supports the important work being done by Woodrock Animal Rescue but also encourages those around him to see the value in giving back. His story shows that financial lessons can go far beyond spending and saving - they can also help children understand empathy, responsibility, and the joy of making a positive impact.

‍

Through initiatives like Spend.Win.Give, Karri aims to make money moments meaningful. It is about helping children build healthy money habits while also showing them that money can be a tool for good.

‍

Haakon has reminded us all that when children are empowered to make real choices, they are capable of extraordinary generosity. And sometimes, the greatest reward is not what you win -  but what you choose to do with it.‍

‍

Here is Haakon choosing to make a difference with his generous donation.
