Social Responsibility

Marriott supports the local community in which it's office is located, primarily through feeding schemes and education programmes. We aim to make a difference in our immediate environment by working with existing providers and support structures so that we can add and assist in growing established initiatives.

Ingane Yami Children's Village

Ingane Yami Children's Village is not an orphanage but rather a permanent, loving home for orphaned and vulnerable children. The Village is located just outside of Durban, in the Shongweni Valley. The Village consists of individual homes. Each home is home to six children and a carefully selected foster mother. The team at the Village works together to ensure each child's emotional, educational, physical and spiritual needs are met.

Mandela Day

The essence of Mandela Day — take action, inspire change, and make every day a Mandela Day — is more important than ever before. During the month of July we take on a broader focus across KZN, not only contributing towards initiatives in our key areas of feeding and education, but also through contributions to other organisations. Marriott staff are encouraged to take 67 minutes out of their working day to contribute towards a cause of their choice.
