Gender Links purchased the Cottages in 2011, through its own hard earned reserves generated from Consultancy services, publications and training. Besides the fact that property was sighted by financial advisers as the best investment option, there were also a number of factors that contributed to the motivation for the investment.

Gender Links had spent substantial amounts of money, close to R1million Rands, during R2010/2011 financial year on accomodation and conferencing. Buying the GL Cottages therefore meant that Gender Links going to make better use of financial resources and make huge savings as they would now use the Cottages facilities. In addition, Gender Links believed in the social entrepreneurship model in which case all profits generated by the Cottages would be re-invested in the work of the NGO.
