NEST (ESO)
NEST, an Environmental Support Organisation, is part of the Run West (NPO) family.
NEST serves as a dedicated facilitator and educational initiative, promoting environmental education through internationally accredited Eco-School Programmes created by our partner, WESSA, as well as our own custom programmes. Additionally, we drive social development through beach clean-ups, community tree plantings, and recycling initiatives.
By integrating sustainability into education, we empower children to become active environmental stewards, ensuring that the impact of our program extends far beyond the classroom and into their communities.
All funds raised from the annual Run West Trail Running Events are allocated to and used to support NEST.
