Our mission is to make a lasting and positive impact, primarily through
education-related projects, in the towns that host the Absa Cape Epic
and the Cape Odyssey sporting events.

Moravian is a Primary School in Philipe where the growing demand caused by the
large number of learners is cause for concern. The basic schooling necessities
of classrooms, space and lack of school desks are blatantly lacking. The school
falls into the lowest socio economic category and does not enjoy the support of
the community which is made up mostly of those without a regular source ofincome.
The Big Tree Foundation is the official charity of the Absa Cape Epic and the Cape Odyssey sporting events. From the inception of both of these events, mechanisms were put in place to benefit a far wider audience than just the participants.
The Big Tree Foundation does more than just hand out bicycles. We believe that, to make a lasting impact, we must focus on education. Through our interactions with schools in the communities along the routes of the Absa Cape Epic and the Cape Odyssey, we have seen the extent to which learners were lacking many basic resource materials.
