Lending a helping hand in the surrounding communities

Everything started during Christmas season in 2015, when Claudia's attention was brought to an orphanage in the great Kruger area. She organised and helped  with the packing of "Christmas-Shoeboxes" and handed them out with friends.

 

She saw the excitment in the orphaned childrens' eyes and this kept her going. In 2016 she started supporting a daycare center for disabled children. Together with a friend, the two women raised money for cp-workshops (cerebral palsy), where parents learned how to handle this incredibly challenging disease and how to best help their children.

Since then lots happened and in the meanwhile Aka'Ani NPC was founded to provide more support in the area around Hoedspuit and in different communities. The projects listed below show a cross-section of our work with the individual communities and programs.

  PERMACULTURE  

During Covid 19 lockdown the women from the village created a  community garden to grow food that was in short supply. As the eco village expanded so did our garden and created a long term sustainable village project.

FOOD PARCELs 

With the help of our donors Aka'Ani was able to pack food parcels for the community during Covid19. We handed out parcels as long as the support for vulnerable families was urgently needed.

  Conservation

Here the circle comes back together: If we support our communities and help with education, wildlife in the area will have a chance and people will protect nature - for their own future ...and the animals!
