Reel Life is a Level 1 BBBEE contributor – and a distinct and separate legal entity with its own management team and Board.
As a non-profit, Reel Life enables partners who require a Section 18A tax certificate to support work targeting food and nutrition across South Africa.
Food and nutrition (SDG2) is a core, foundational sustainability risk to South Africa and by extension companies working in South Africa and their staff. Addressing this challenge also significantly impacts on health and education outcomes (SDGs 3 and 4).
There is also a strong reference to Gender (SDG5) related issues as women and children in poorer communities often bear the brunt of food poverty.
Furthermore, there are several additional benefits to the Reel model including creating incomes/savings in rural areas and significant water savings (SDGs 8 and 6)
Growing food not only impacts a person’s ability to take control of their food security. It has a myriad of other benefits, including instilling a connection to nature, responsibility, patience, relaxation and problem solving. Whether a few pots on your windowsill or a whole veggie patch in the garden, the process of growing food will improve your quality of life.
It is important to Reel Gardening that this process is accessible to anybody.
However many of the people we work with, and who want to embark on this growing journey, don’t have the capacity to purchase the Reel Gardening Products themselves.
Reel Gardening is determined to help these people start their own successful vegetable gardens.
Sponsors enable natural, economical Reel Gardening Vegetable gardens to be set up for beneficiary organisations in need.
For every Reel Gardening product sold, we donate seed tape to a person in need.
