Ikhala Trust Website

“Ikhala” is the isiXhosa word
for Aloe in English. The Aloe is
indigenous to the Eastern Cape.
It is hardy, resilient and thrives best
in adverse weather conditions.
The Aloe plant is also used for
medicinal purposes.
It was felt that the name was
appropriate for a delegated fund
in the Eastern Cape Province, as
although it was expected that
not everything would go smoothly,
the initiative would prosper
regardless of the adversities it faced.
