In 2017, UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring Report found that 264 million children were not in school. 111 million of these children live in Africa. We are not ok with this!
We’ve made it our mission to ensure that every African child has access to an education. The way we’re doing this is by inspiring our adventurers to sponsor disadvantaged children through school.
To make the experience more authentic, we take our adventurers to meet the student they are sponsoring, visit their family and cook lunch in their home. Our adventurers experience something special that they’ll rave about for years while an African child gets an opportunity to change their life.
Imagine if every one of the 62.5 million tourists visiting Africa each year sponsored a student…
