“It is with great appreciation that I write this letter to you.

I would like to thank the Underdog team for their professionalism, creative approach to work and above all, efficient delivery on each and every request – no matter how small or ridiculous it may seem.

Over the past eight years, loveLife has built a solid relationship with Underdog – a relationship which has extended beyond creative designing, production, maintenance and competitive pricing for the loveLife websites - but a relationship that has contributed to changing and shaping the lives of young people across our country.

Since loveLife’s first contract with Underdog in 2001 with the international programme, S’camto groundBREAKERS going Global, we have never looked back and are up to date still constantly reassured that we can entrust Underdog with all our new media needs.

It is due to your hard work and contribution that we receive emails from young people like this:

Sender's comments: Wha--aw what an amazing website, great job you guys, this time you really made a huge difference in my life. May God bless you in every way possible because you helped me in a way that impacted my life positively. BIGGGGGG-UPS!!!!! U GUYZ ROCK.

I look forward to a great working relationship for many years to come.”

“As we approach the holiday season and the end of 2007, I just wanted to write this letter of appreciation to Underdog for your commitment, dedication and work this year in maintaining and managing our websites – www.broadcasthivafrica.org and www.itbeginswithyou.org.

Your reliability and responsiveness to our needs and requirements cannot be overstated. Over the year, the traffic to the websites has steadily grown and this is due in no small measure to the design and attractiveness of the websites. We truly recognize the dedication and creativity of Underdog staff and the valuable role you play in all our efforts in reaching for an HIV-free generation. We look forward to a productive 2008.”

“It is ALWAYS a delight to work with Underdog – “The Shoprite Checkers SABC2 Woman of the Year Awards” has for the past four years, commissioned Underdog to produce the sponsor inserts, finalist profiles and promos. Their professionalism is superb, their creativity innovative, and the standard of delivery and expertise is exceptional. The Awards have truly been enhanced by Underdog’s contribution.

On the strength of this execution, Underdog continued to amaze us with beautiful touching stories about the Community Builder of the Year Finalists. Underdog is all about great teamwork, hiring the right people and doing it with passion!”

“Just a short note to thank you and the entire team from Underdog for all your effort and hard work - and to congratulate you on the brilliant footage you put together and in particular, for the patience you had with me. […] I realise that it must have been a bit of a nightmare for some of the team as I realise that motorsport is not exactly everyone's favourite sport, but you guys really did a brilliant job.

It really was great meeting all of you and I am keeping your business card and will definitely contact you when Motorsport S.A. (MSA) needs some coverage.”
