Unity of Gospel Artists Company promotes artists from different countries in Southern Africa such as Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland, Namibia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and South African. According to the founder, Dr Morake Makhudu, the event will be organised by some of their members who are businessmen and women in Unity of Gospel Artists called U.G.A Baipereki Lefatsheng.

Makhudu further explained that they will inspire and empower the businessmen and women in Botswana and also to donate to those who were coming from disadvantaged families.
