Helping local projects and charities
Helping local projects and charities
When planning our trips we look for ways in which we can help local projects and charities either financially or non-financially through our customers taking much needed supplies such as pens, paper or clothing.Examples of projects and charities we support
SOS Children
We give £3 for every passenger who travels on selected trips to South Africa and Botswana. The money we donate supports the charity taking children from local townships on safaris to see the amazing wildlife from their own country, something they’re not able to do on their own.

Friends of Conservation
We donate $5 to the Selous Rhino Project for every person booking on a selection of our Namibia, Tanzania and Kenya trips. The charity works to protecting the rhino that are left in the reserve and our donation helps increase the number and skills of the rangers, and the purchase of essential equipment.

Project Peru
Project Peru is a UK based charity, set up in 1992. Its aims are to provide financial and material support for those in poverty, while at the same time encouraging voluntary effort and raising awareness of development issues in a Latin American context. We support the children’s refuge they’ve set up in Lima by donating £5 for every person travelling to Peru.

Schools in India
We are currently supporting a school in the small town of Betalghat in the Himalayan foothills. It’s a primary school with approximately 50 pupils, and although it is government funded, is in desperate need of more support. We make a donation for every customer travelling, which has so far helped to buy school uniform for all the children, and with some much needed construction work.

Trisilu Young Leaders Club
Working with our local agent in Nepal, over the last few years we have helped to fund the building of a new sports and community centre for the Trisilu Young Leaders Club. The centre helps to unite underprivileged youngsters from the surrounding villages and provides various educational facilities. Located on the road which links Kathmandu and Pokhara, it is still in need of support to keep the centre going.

Arusha Children’s Trust
This school in Tanzania, located in a remote village roughly an hour outside of Arusha, was built by our local supplier to help teach young children who would not otherwise have access to any sort of formal education. Their schooling helps these children develop a wider understanding of the world they live in as well as providing one hot meal a day – a meal which provides the key source of nutrition for many of these children. We donate $5 for every customer travelling on specific trips.
