secret eats / charity
Since our founding in 2013, giving back to the community has been central to our Secret dinners, cocktail parties and culinary experiences. We haven’t kept track of how much we’ve raised or even all of the different charities and partners we’ve given to over the years.
We believe strongly in giving back to the communities where we live, work and play. Explore the different charity organisations we have supported in different ways over the years and see how you can give back.

StreetSmart South Africa raises funds for street children programmes through participating restaurants, accommodation establishments and wine tasting centres
StreetSmart South Africa raises funds for street children’s education, skills training and family reunification programmes, in partnership with restaurants, beneficiary organisations and sponsors throughout South Africa.
We are proud to say that since our founding in 2013, a small portion of every ticket sold at our Cape Town dinners has consistently gone to StreetSmart. We were even recognised as one of the top fundraisers of the year way back when. Over the years, our secret dinners in Joburg and Durban have also contributed to this worthy cause.
