Itumeleng Phiri the Dreamer

7 year old Itumeleng Phiri visited the World of Yamaha with the Reach for a Dream Founda-tion on Monday and was surprised to see a new Yamaha E363 Keyboard waiting for him as his wish was to learn how to play the keyboard.

Since 1988 the Reach for a Dream founda-

tion has been encouraging children to use their dreams to fight life threatening illnesses, “Inspir-ing hope through the power of dreams” , and has since fulfilled over 16 805 dreams with an average of 6 dreams being fulfilled each day of the week.

Yamaha Distributors SA has been involved with Reach for a Dream for approximately 5 years, through the donation of musical equipment to help young dreamers fulfil their dreams.

Reach for a Dream contacted Ya-maha with Itumeleng’s story related to his ongoing fight with a long term illness and how he wished to learn to play the keyboard. Needless to say Yamaha was only too happy to get on board and to help make Itumelengs dream come true.

Clint Waring, General Manager of Yamaha Music, was kind enough to give Itumeleng a crash course

on how to play his new Yamaha keyboard and Itumeleng was all too keen to get his fingers tapping on the keys.

The Yamaha team was very humbled to meet Itumeleng and it was extremely fulfilling to

see the bright smile on his face. We are confi-dent that Itumeleng will enjoy countless hours playing his new Yamaha keyboard as a result of the Reach for a Dream Foundation and Ya-maha South Africa.
