Kia South Africa has announced its support of Little Eden, an organisation that has provided dignity, care, and hope to children and adults with severe and profound intellectual disabilities since 1967.
Little Eden currently cares for 300 residents aged 4 to 70 across two specialised homes in Johannesburg. Many have been abandoned or come from families unable to meet their complex needs. Over the past 58 years, more than 1,200 people have found safety, acceptance, and love through the organisation.
To assist Little Eden in continuing its vital work, Kia South Africa has donated a Kia Carens, a versatile seven-seater vehicle that will play a key role in supporting the organisation’s transport requirements.
Kia South Africa’s contribution is further strengthened by Europcar, which will sponsor all servicing and maintenance of the vehicle during its time with Little Eden, a meaningful partnership ensuring uninterrupted mobility for the organisation.
Paul Turnbull, CEO of Kia South Africa, says the company is honoured to support such an essential cause. “It is important to assist those in need, and transport is our game. We are proud to stand alongside Little Eden and contribute to the incredible work they do.”
The Kia Carens, set to launch in South Africa in 2026, brings elegance, versatility, and Kia’s strong heritage in practical, family-oriented mobility. It will come standard with an unlimited-kilometre, five-year warranty, underscoring Kia’s commitment to quality and long-term reliability.
Little Eden’s holistic care model includes personalised stimulation programmes, specialised therapy, customised seating and positioning support, and spiritual care, empowering each resident to reach their fullest potential. These services run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Kia South Africa is proud to support an organisation that embodies compassion, dignity, and the belief that every person deserves to be valued and loved.
