Sharing the Benefits through the Stellar Foundation:
Stellar is committed to positive social development in the workplace, on the farms and in the
surrounding communities. We channel the Fair Trade social contribution from wine sales through
the Stellar Foundation, a Section 21 NPO, for funding and management of development projects,
large and small.
The social contribution from sales at Woolworths is 50c per bottle, which has been used to purchase
and outfit a mobile clinic for the Primary Health Care scheme.
To date we have 26 projects either completed, ongoing or in the pilot stage. A snapshot:
A primary health care scheme for 300 workers and their families, including a mobile
clinic purchased with support from Woolworths and about to be delivered.
