The Naked Difference: How we’re giving back in 2024

InsureNaked

Celebrating another year of giving back with R800,000 donated to meaningful causes, all made possible by our amazing customers! Here's to making a difference together.

We’re excited to share that in 2024, the Naked Difference will amount to R800,000, supporting causes that our customers care about. These organisations are making a real difference in our communities, and thanks to the Naked Difference, we’re proud to play a part in creating meaningful change.

At Naked, we’re rethinking how insurance works. It’s not just about protecting your things — it’s about transparency, fairness, and making a difference. Here’s how it works: When you pay your premium, we take a flat fee to keep things running. The rest? It goes into a pot to pay claims and related expenses. If there’s anything left at the end of the year, we don’t keep it as profit — instead, it’s donated to causes chosen by our customers. That’s the Naked Difference and it changes everything about insurance.

One of the organisations benefiting from the Naked Difference is Christel House SA, which is working hard to break the cycle of poverty in Cape Town. Christel House SA’s mission is to provide quality education to underprivileged children. With this year’s Naked Difference payment, they plan to empower university-bound alumni with stipends, further helping to break the cycle of poverty and build brighter futures.

Greenpop, with the help of this year’s Naked Difference payment, is focusing on its Forests For Life programme. This initiative is dedicated to restoring ecosystems by planting trees, ensuring a healthier planet and a more sustainable future for future generations.

Last year’s payment helped U-turn to expand into Johannesburg. With the support of the Naked Difference this year, they can continue to provide rehabilitation and skills training programmes that help individuals move off the streets and into permanent employment.

Animal welfare is another important cause supported by the Naked Difference. Oscars Arc is committed to finding loving homes for shelter dogs and is using this year’s contribution to keep their pop-up adoption stations running.

Door of Hope cares for abandoned and orphaned babies, offering them a safe and nurturing environment. With the Naked Difference’s support, they can continue offering essential care like nappies and formula to abandoned and orphaned babies.
