4. “izandla ziyagezana /
hands wash each other”
We take this age-old wisdom to heart in a business so
interdependent on people. It underlines much of the
Townhouse Hotel’s Corporate Social Investment approach.
We believe that the smallest contribution has the power to
effect change…
from the development of a talented kitchen worker to a sous
chef supreme, the health and fitness project initiated by
waist-watching staff members, the support of a job creation
project that makes crafts sold in the hotel, the rands from
a hotel guest that help fund our community projects or the
efforts of staff to see more of a city’s homeless with food
and shelter this winter...
…every little bit counts.
A sample of our Corporate Social Investment projects and initiatives is included here.
For more detailed information, visit our website www.townhouse.co.za
5. introduction
During the last 12 months our guest’s have donated R35 500.00 towards Our Kids of the Cape
Fund. The Hotel has matched this amount Rand for Rand to ensure that we uplift and support our
various long term and short term beneficiaries. Our staff eagerly joins the committee on the project
visits to the various beneficiaries. Our goal is to ensure that by the end of the financial year at least
90% of our staff would have visited one of the beneficiaries.
The Townhouse Hotel prides itself on taking any opportunity to assist the local community which
is seen as our extended “family” Whether it is a small donation for fundraising; giving food to the
.
homeless; educating our employees on what they can do in their local communities or supporting
local non-profit organisations financially on a monthly basis, everything done or given, comes from
the heart.
A committee of staff from the supported Hotels run the committee and distribute funds. They meet
monthly to evaluate progress of projects and authorize funding to new ones. The KOTC Committee
also arrange various social involvement projects for staff, and draw on the resources of the hotels to
assist with sponsorships and donations in kind. Between August 2011 and July 2012, R 260 332.00
was collected by the KOTC. In 2011/12, R351 700.00 was donated or spent on CSI initiatives.
To grow our initiative we have successfully become a beneficiary
of My School My Village My Planet.
We have also included an SMS donation facility:
Simply SMS ‘KOTC’ to 38021 / each SMS costs R10*
*Please note: a percentage of the R10.00 donated will go to network operator and administration fees.

What did we do with the golf day money?
Funds Woodside hoist
In support of our quest to “help the children who can’t help themselves”,
KOTC has decided to use a portion of the funds raised at our charity Golf Day
to install a second electronic bath hoist at Woodside Special Care Centre - a
home for profoundly intellectually disabled children and young adults.
With a hoist in each bathroom, the carers will be provided with much-needed
relief as they carry out the children’s daily bath routine. It works firstly, by
lifting and lowering each child safely and securely into the bath and secondly,
by supporting them, once in the bath, so that the carer’s hands are free to
give them a nice clean wash.
13. Our staff eagerly joins
the committee on the
project visits to the
