Food Donations by Umass

The Timbavati Foundation was present at the Ekurheleni Centre for Orphans and Vulnerable children with the Isenberg School of Management at Umass Amherst when they made a prestigious donation of food to the Centre. The Board Members of Ekurhuleni were thrilled with the wonderful donation which will make a huge difference to the lives of these children.

Words of gratitude were passed on to Into Africa Safari for organising everything and also to the Timbavati Foundation for identifying Ekurhuleni Centre. The students from Umass interacted with the children and it was not easy for them to leave. As a symbol of Good relationships - fruit trees were also planted at the school.

  • History & Culture Blog - This gorgeous seaside town has a proud history dating back to the early 1800s when a man by the name of Hermanus Pieters followed a path etched into the ground by a herd of elephants. Hermanus Pieters was a traveling teacher and Sheppard who growing tired of his locality, made the decision to pack up and try somewhere new. He wandered south of Caledon along the elephant trail and ended up next to the sea where he discovered a fresh spring.

This beautiful setting became known as Hermanuspietersfontein (directly translated as Hermanus Pieters Fountain).
