August 21, 2015 will mark two years of operations for Africa News Network (ANN7). Following the exceptional success of the ANN7 South African of the Year (SATY) 2014, the channel that continues to grow from strength to strength will host its second anniversary celebrations in the form of ANN7 South African of the Year (SATY) 2015.
In the second edition of the pioneering initiative the channel, whose mantra is to extol the extraordinary aspects of our beautiful country South Africa, will celebrate the rich heritage and diversity of South Africa for this year’s installment of SATY 2015.
This year the theme of the SATY awards will be Unity in Diversity. The same theme is what drives us 20 years post-apartheid to realise the dreams of Madiba and many other struggle heroes.
SATY 2015 will strive to bring forth this spirit of South Africa that binds us as a nation. In the channel’s journey to SATY 2015, it will highlight and celebrate the accomplishments of achievers, who contributed across various fields to the unity and diversity of South Africa. The channel will also present stories of some of the unsung heroes working discreetly in their unique way and contributing to this society.
