Since the start of the national lockdown, Sun International has carefully considered how we can respond to the growing humanitarian crisis unfolding across our country.

We are mindful that as the battle right now is focused on fighting COVID-19, a bigger economic battle is looming. The hospitality and gaming industry is one of many that have been hard hit, so the economic hardships facing smaller businesses and individuals resonates deeply with us.

As our Most Valued Guest, we ask you to support South Africa at this critical time in our country's history by donating up to 50% of your leisure points. In turn, Sun International will pay the rand value of these leisure points over to the COVID-19 Solidarity Fund. We know how hard you have worked for these points, but after we reopen you will be given an opportunity to earn them back in a double-points promotion, that we will run over the first three months.

We ask that you will consider our appeal with compassion. If we act now, there is a chance to do something really meaningful for South Africans who really need it.

We hope you will see our request as an opportunity to unite behind our country. We face an uncertain future but if we all pull together, we can get our country back on a path of prosperity for all.

Thank you for your support over the years. We look forward to a time when we can again entertain you without limitations or restrictions and we can continue create lasting memories!
