ChangeNOW Celebrates. A year of Dedication, Love & Passion ... and Our Incredible Journey Continues.
Like we do every month we give a special thank you to the business person that has embraced our last cover and so we would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Dinesh Naidoo and The Serendipity World Group, we wish you nothing but SUCCESS in all the new products you are about to launch, you really are a humble and well defined business leader. This is a testimonial from an entrepreneur whom I have great respect and admiration for and was fortunate to have him share just a window into his business world ... embrace our February 2013 Feature Cover Story. I am humbled by his words: "To the team at ChangeNOW Magazine, The Coalition Group would like to extend our Congratulations to all of you. These are trying times, when even the established large publishing houses are experiencing tough times and so to have a vibrant publisher like Raj Maree launch a new FREE publication with so much of conviction and determination in uncertain times definitely endeared me to him and the publication. The extraordinary calibre of business acumen and intellect embodied in the publisher and writers were such a source of inspiration for me as an entrepreneur, that I felt we would be amiss not to feature in the magazine. I was so impressed with the level of professionalism and superb workmanship on the final product. The quality of the magazine has, by my estimation, established ChangeNOW Magazine firmly amongst the upper echelon of the top publications in South Africa.

CONTRIBUTORS
As an avid traveler internationally, I am exposed to quite a variety of international magazines and I can say with absolute certainty that when compared with many of these for sale publications, ChangeNOW Magazine distributed freely on stands is right up there with the best of them. We recognize that the growth and success you have seen in the last year is due not only to the strong and dedicated team you have behind you but also largely due to the capable and competent nature with which management engages, motivates and inspires. For this, we at Coalition Group congratulate you all. What a pleasure it has been dealing with you. I whole heartedly recommend that any corporate seeking additional exposure engage the team at ChangeNOW. The process and the value extruded is refreshing. Coalition Group recognizes the contribution made in uplifting not just the youth, specific genders and cultural groups, but rather society as a whole, for this stance, we commend you and wish government and other corporates would emulate your processes. It would make for a better South Africa .... One Successful Year - PHENOMENAL - WELL DONE and all the best for the next 10 Successful years.!" - Azeem Cassim: MD Coalition CSTO WOW! to the above, and thank you Mr Cassim.
