Fundraising for your expedition

Your adventure starts right here

Your adventure starts right here – and fundraising is the first step in your expedition journey. It’ll teach you some important life skills such as money management, problem solving and event planning, that will stand you in good stead for your future. Plus, the satisfaction of knowing that you earned your way to your adventure makes it worth every minute. 

Keeping you motivated and reaching your goals

We understand the thought of raising the full amount for an expedition is daunting, that’s why we have put such a fantastic fundraising support network in place to help you every step of the way.
