Intrepid is committed to travelling in a way that is respectful of local people, their culture, local economies and the environment. They believe that with your participation they can help conserve the areas you visit and bring positive benefits to host communities.

The Intrepid Foundation was established by Intrepid Travel to facilitate travellers’ and Intrepid’s giving back to destination communities. They bring support to a range of organisations around the world, working to improve: health care, education, human rights, child welfare, sustainable development, environmental protection, animal welfare and wildlife protection. The Intrepid Foundation’s administrative overheads are entirely funded by Intrepid Travel so that 100% of public donations will reach the chosen project and Intrepid Travel offers a donation matching incentive so that your donation through TravelPledge will actually be matched £ for £*.

All of the below projects are delivered in association with The Intrepid Foundation

For travellers with a yearning to get off the beaten track, Intrepid opens up a whole new world. With a huge variety of travel styles available, Intrepid travellers explore the world’s most amazing places – discovering real people, real cultures and having incredible real life experiences along the way.

The Intrepid Foundation’s values include: demonstrating respect for all people, cultures and the environment; working to understand the different needs and contexts of the communities with whom they work, and behaving with integrity and honesty.

*up to the equivalent of AU$5,000 per donor and a total of AU$300,000 for all donors in each financial year.
