Reka enables 1,000 families every year to take a week’s holiday for CHF 200. Holidays are in a Reka Holiday Village, a Reka holiday flat or a youth hostel in Switzerland. Reka assumes the rental costs. The journey by public transport from the place of residence to the holiday destination is included, except for young people from 16 years. Half-board accommodation is included with a family room at youth hostels.
