Caring for destination

This accommodation provider has taken action to address one or more issues (whether environmental, social or cultural) which will contribute positively to the long term viability of the destination and hence their site displays a Caring for the destination rating.

Main area of focus in Caring for the Destination:  

Eikendal has selected three non-profit organisations that it now sponsors. These organisations support disadvantaged children who have special needs.

Detailed description of the Caring for the Destination Initiative: 

We work with the Anna Foundation, the Bushveld Foundation and the Pebbles Project.

The Anna Foundation is a registered non-profit organization working with farm communities and their children. Their program revolves around the 3 R's: Reading, Running and Right-ting. It focuses on the holistic development of each child.
The Bushveld Foundation supports aids orphans in South Africa, particularly in the Bushveld area.

The Pebbles Project was established in 2004 to offer support to children with special educational needs, particularly those whose lives are affected by alcohol in some way.
