STAY WELL, GIVE WELL

From each of our guests’ booking, we have decided to donate 5% to effective causes to contribute to the environment, society and wellbeing. You might think this is a lot, but we think there is more we could do – and we are continuously striving to do so.

Why “Effective Altruism”?

Although giving has its positive effect of its own, we have also found the dilemma that most donors do not have accurate or research-based information before deciding where to give, supporting charities that are emotion-based, therefore, the impact being not as effective.

Why this Ratio?

Through our learning so far, we have come to a perspective that tackling animal welfare and the issue of animal suffering seems to be one of the most effective forms of altruism in our current world. This is because most importantly, it not only benefits the animals but also the health and wellbeing of humans and our society as a whole. At the same time, it is a cause that is currently least supported through donations globally, therefore making it the “low-hanging fruits”. Below is our further logic behind the cause.

• Benefits to the human health and wellbeing:
• Reduction of green house gas emissions (GHG): Less meat production means less forest clearing for farming
• Lessening the chance of pandemics:

1% for carbon offsetting to offset our visiting guests’ footprint (Ecologi).

• Direct impact: Tree plantation and conservation, financing renewable energy plant
• Indirect impact:

3% for animal welfare and biodiversity conservation (Animal Charity Evaluator, BLOOM and L214).

• Direct impact: Improving wellbeing of animals, supporting meat alternative solutions, promoting moral progress (animal rights)
• Indirect impact: Mitigation of environmental footprint, climate change

ACE is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit registered in the United States with a globally-distributed team dedicated to finding and promoting the most effective ways to help animals, working toward this mission by evaluating and recommending charities, awarding grants to promising projects, and driving capital in the movement.

BLOOM is a non-profit organization founded in 2005 that works to preserve the marine environment and species from unnecessary destruction and to increase social benefits in the fishing sector.

L214 is an association for the defense of animals used as food resources (meat, milk, eggs, fish). Since its inception in 2008, it has made public over 100 investigations revealing the conditions under which animals are raised, transported and slaughtered. These videos have revealed the routine practices and malfunctions of an industry that considers and treats animals as commodities.
