Redhill Literacy & Feeding Project<\/h2>\n

Redhill Literacy & Feeding Project<\/a>\u00a0was formed to help the children of Redhill to improve their levels of literacy. Since then the project has extended its help to the adults in Redhill, again to help improve their levels of education. We started a feeding initiative in 2014 as we realised that trying to teach children when they are hungry and undernourished is difficult. In 2014, Buyiswa Ponti, the founder of Redhill Literacy and Food Project, won South African Leadership Award for this initiative.<\/p>\n

Today they teach and feed about\u00a0<\/span>300 kids<\/strong>, 5 days a week. Every year we aim to fundraise for a Christmas Party for the children.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Redhill is classed as an informal settlement. It is a very deprived and poor community. The nature of an informal settlement is it\u2019s a temporary area, no brick houses and no tarmac roads. It grows incrementally every year. Because of it’s remote location, it’s very hard for the people to get to work and home and for the children to get to school and home, as they rely on 1-2 taxis and buses a day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/redhillnpo.co.za\/” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Learn more and donate” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/wildcornertravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot-2022-05-23-at-16.26.11.png” title_text=”Screenshot 2022-05-23 at 16.26.11″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”10vh||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Experience Traditional Africa with Evi – Airbnb Experience<\/h2>\n

Evi has been hosting guests and giving authentic experiences for many organisations, such as Remote Year and Wild Corner Travel. She has created a lovely little home for her 4 children and loves bringing guests home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In her community – Redhill, Evi represents the Non-Profit Organisation Redhill Literacy and Feeding Project<\/a>, which believes that education of the youth in the community is the only way to tackle the social issues around us, but at the same time that a child cannot learn on an empty stomach.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have helped Evi to put this Airbnb Experience together to help uplift her and her family, as well as entire community through inspiration to action, support and growing awareness about their daily challenges.\u00a0<\/span>Book now by choosing the date below.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.airbnb.co.za\/experiences\/1238460″ url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Book Experience with Evi” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/wildcornertravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screenshot-2022-05-23-at-19.03.54.png” title_text=”traditional africa Evi Airbnb ewxperience township cape town” url=”https:\/\/www.airbnb.co.za\/experiences\/1238460″ url_new_window=”on” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”10vh||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Salty Hour<\/h2>\n
\n

Salty Hour is an hour of free surfing at specific beaches. The benefit of surfing during this hour is that you will receive some cool tips on how to improve your surfing from experienced surfers. The youngest Salty has been 3 years old and our eldest Salty 76 years old. Age, race and social class are not a barrier. Anyone can join.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Many people won\u2019t experience the feeling of riding a wave in their lifetime. For many reasons, some obvious and some not so obvious. Fear of the unknown, fear of the ocean, poverty, no accessibility to equipment, confidence issues… At Salty Hour we break down some of those barriers by creating an environment to educate beginner surfers about the ocean, create comfort by guiding them in the water, building confidence in the water and providing the equipment required to ride that very first wave.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
