SERVE

Our visit to this planet is short, so we should use our time meaningfully, which we can do by helping others wherever possible.
— Dalai Lama

Limited on funds? No problem.

In addition to fundraising, you can accrue credit toward our trips by supporting us in the ways listed below.

Requirements:

  1. Create and host an event through the Trek Relief Adventurers Facebook Page that is active and/or service-oriented, and

  2. Share and promote the event within your networks.

Help us share the good word by setting up a dedicated event to share your story with Trek Relief. This can be at an in-person event, online, or on a podcast - you name it!

  2. Send us a recording of the speaking gig and share it with your networks.

Requirements:

  1. For one month, create two posts with stories per week (8 posts/stories total), and

  2. Take a picture of the posted flyer, and provide the city and name of the establishment where each was posted.


FULL TRIP CREDIT

Lead a Trip

A Trip Leader acts as a liaison between our charitable project coordinators, tour operators, and trip participants. This role serves as a stepping stone to help educate and train individuals who may also want to create their own international service program one day. Depending on the group size, Trip Leaders may receive a maximum value equivalent to:

  • The full amount of the cost of their trip with Trek Relief, and

  • The full reimbursement for economical flight tickets to and from their home location.

Requirements:

  1. Must have completed at least one Trek Relief trip previously in the country/region they will be leading.

  2. Must be from the same country as the majority of their trip’s participants to help answer questions regarding flight logistics, obtaining necessary gear, managing payments, and bridging cultural gaps.

  3. They must be able to complete pre-and post-trip duties, as outlined in our Guidelines for Trip Leaders. Please send us a message to view this document.

MAKE a promo VIDEO

We are looking for 1-2 minute edited videos that showcase our mission, projects, achievements, and the individuals who spearhead them.

Requirements:

  1. Let us know which trip you’d like to attend and show us examples of your work,

  2. Provide your own professional camera gear/drone, and

  3. Deliver the final product within 2 months of trip completion.

For full credit: we ask that the entire trip cost is fundraised/donated up front to cover your travel expenses. Once we receive the final video product, your entire trip cost will be reimbursed.

For partial credit: to receive some credit before the trip starts, there is also the option to edit footage from previous trips to deliver a final video product.
