What we do
The Provision of Donations and Grants
A key aspect of the activities of the EMS Foundation is to provide
funding and other resources to needy projects, individuals, NPO’s and
NGOS that are in line with our aims and objectives. To do this we will
also raise funds.
Poverty Relief and Empowerment Projects
The EMS Foundation works on poverty relief projects and activities
that address the needs of abused and disabled children, orphans and
elderly persons through the provision of facilities, food, resources and
skills development and training. We also provide and support sporting
activities for disadvantaged children such as facilities, equipment and
activities.
Rescue and Rehabilitation of Wild Animals
The EMS Foundation is developing strategies to provide sanctuary and
land for indigenous wild animals in South Africa, particularly those
that need rehabilitation and/or rescue from abusive conditions and
threats. As human rights and dignity are central to our undertakings we
will do so in a way that is always cognisant of human rights issues.
Lobbying and Raising Awareness on Issues affecting wild animals
The EMS Foundation currently focuses on the following issues of
concern: elephants in captivity; hunting and trade; zoos; policy and
legislative issues affecting wild animals; and national and provincial
parks.
Research
The EMS Foundation has identified Research as one of its key and
continuing activities. Through these activities and the evidence and
information obtained, projects and programmes will be identified to
allow the EMS Foundation to: promote the rights, interests and welfare
of wild animals, children and the elderly people in South Africa and
Africa; provide targeted educational interventions; undertake advocacy
and lobbying; and to design workshops and interventions that promote
dialogue, innovation, lasting solutions, empathy and compassion.
