A small contribution comes from Terrace Lodge. Since December 2009 we have decided to give a little help.  How?

  • Giving the tips received from our guests to The Andean Cat Alliance. In Dec.2009-Jan 2010 we collected CLP 29.200;
    in February 2010 CLP 21,900; in April CLP 12,000 (of which 10,000 from a Belgian guest, Mr Verstraeten). Low season in May and June brought only CLP 3.000.  Better in July, CLP 12.000, of which CLP 10.000 from a generous Swiss guest: Cecilia Porchia.  Thanks Cecilia!
  • Asking our guests to refill their bottles of purified water instead of buying bottled mineral water.  Doing this way, the profit from the sales goes to the association, we limit the production of plastic bottles (which can not be recycled locally) and the guests save a little money.
