A national Art competition designed at involving children in encouraging behavioral change through their innovativity and talents in Art. 2008 saw over 90,000 students participating in this competition.

The Heart Foundation Heart Art Competition was awarded an acknowledgment from the Botswana Postal Services and the Philately Association in 2008. One of the stamps that was selected in the 2006 competition, was recognized by the Postal Services for its creativity and design.  This has now been incorporated on a National Commemorative stamp as is the first of its kind in Botswana (and possibly worldwide).

In its continuing efforts to raise awareness of healthy eating, the Heart Foundation of Botswana has teamed up with the Botswana Agricultural Marketing Board (BAMB) in a creative brain child of the Heart Foundation.

This involves enticing Batswana to come up with a tasty, healthy low fat, low salt and low sugar reduced\free recipes put together with ingredients grown in Botswana. 120 recipes were submitted for this competition.  Prizes were awarded in August 2008 for the top 6 recipes submitted to the competition from the formal and informal sector.

We are presently the process of publishing them to be marketed internationally.
