The #MakingMagicWithMaths campaign is a challenge between a CEO or a public figure and one of the PAMA team members - all of whom are between six and 11 years of age. The challenge is simple - it's a contest with one of the A+ students to a very short arithmetic challenge. If the competing CEO or public figure is unable to beat their young challenger, they will be asked to make a donation of any amount to the PAMA SA Fund and nominate another high profile figure to take on the same challenge. Ultimately, the goal is to raise an amount of R80,000 which will be used to send two young mathematicians from the Zandspruit township to the United States.
