Tourism Community Development Trust

Ashanti is a founding member of the Tourism Community Development Trust and Lisa (one of the Ashanti founders) is a trustee on the board.Ā  It has been operational since 2005 and has assisted in many projects in the greater Cape Town community.Ā Ā  We founded the trust because we found that so many of our guests wanted to make a difference and didn’t know who and where to contribute.Ā  We are a conduit for tourists and tourism-related businesses to meaningfully assist in the betterment of many people’s lives.Ā Ā  The trust chooses sustainable projects and believe in the ā€œhand-up, not hand-outā€ philosophy.Ā  All our projects are sustainable and continue without our assistance once they have been set up.Ā  We still visit them all and often arrange outings to them.
