Every year we donate a percentage of our profits to two charities, each carrying out essential work for conservation and communities.

Read an update on some of their projects here:

Waves for Change works in under-resourced communities in and around Cape Town, providing support and therapy for children who wouldn't otherwise have access to the help they need.

The charity now supports over 2,000 children through community driven projects and the increasingly popular, and successful surf therapy programme. The positive physical, and mental, health benefits of surfing cannot be denied and the transformation in some of the children and young people who have joined the Waves for Change programmes is testament to that. 

Children are assigned a mentor who supports them through their development, and often healing process, learning to cope with stress, relieving troublesome thoughts and guiding them onto a stable pathway for their future. These mentors are a vital piece of the puzzle, providing support and a safe space for children.

Through your support of Bonamy, we are in turn able to make an annual donation which goes towards developing therapy programmes using sport as an outlet. Our collective donations help provide safe transport for these kids, hot meals, and aids the personal and professional development of the mentors and coaches who are such a vital part of the journey. 

African Parks was founded in 2000 and to date manages 22 national parks in 12 different countries across Africa, each with astounding success. The charity secures vast areas of wilderness, at risk of deteriorating beyond rescue, and invests in the local community to restore the area to its former glory. 

We have selected that our donations are directed to the Nkhotakota National Park in Malawi, which was taken into African Parks' care in 2015 when the park's wildlife had been hunted and poached to near zero. The first task was to educate the local community to the importance of the animals and the benefits of tourism to the local area. 

At the time of writing, Nkhotakota is now thriving with over 500 elephant and 2000+ other animals that have been re-located from other parts of Malawi, and elsewhere in Southern Africa. It was, in fact, the largest ever elephant relocation programme. Most excitingly, camera traps have proved that populations of Roan antelope and honey badger have returned, previously considered locally extinct. 

With the relentless work by African Parks, the local community surrounding Nkhotakota is now reaping the benefits of a successful national park. Education programmes are training rangers, anti-poaching teams are on regular patrol, employment has increased and children are benefiting from local scholarships to secure their own future.

It is so encouraging to see these national parks flourish under the care and attention of African Parks. Nkhotakota is a highlight of a trip to Malawi, as are any of the parks on the receiving end of African Parks care and attention. 

So, from us, from our chosen charities and all those with a brighter future...Thank You.
