Facts and Figures
In 2024, the Reka Foundation for Holiday Aid enabled 867 families and single parents facing socioeconomic challenges, and 1,874 children, to spend a week on holiday at Reka Holiday Villages, Reka holiday homes and Swiss youth hostels. This represents an increase of 9.4% compared to the previous year. Despite this increase, the target of 1,100 family packages was not achieved. In addition, the Foundation gave financial support to homes, foundations, and organisations for the purposes of providing holiday camps for children and young people with disabilities, with 239 young people benefiting from these initiatives.
In total, the Foundation invested CHF 1.6 million for its beneficiaries – an increase of 14.3% compared to the previous year. Because of the economic uncertainties, which are having a significant impact on low earners inparticular, including many single parents and large families, the 2025 goal of 1,000 holiday packages is likely to be achieved.
In 2024, the Foundation made a small profit of CHF 1,362.–. In addition to donations from supporters and grants from foundations, it received CHF 665,650.–from Reka for its further development. The Foundation’s equity is CHF 4.2 million. The Foundation’s annual financial statements were audited by BDO Ltd, Bern.
The Reka Foundation for Holiday Aid would like to thank all its private donors and foundations fortheir generous support.
