Donate to the Inspiring Explorers™ Fund
By making a gift to the Inspiring Explorers™ Fund, you will create opportunities for young people to connect with and be inspired by the qualities of heroic Antarctic leaders that you admire.
From the classroom to polar-inspired expeditions, you could give them the chance to grow an explorer mindset and dream of a different future. With your support, they will be better equipped to embrace the unknown, face uncertainty and make a positive contribution to our changing world.
For a limited time, all donations to the Inspiring Explorers™ Fund will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to NZD $40,000 until 31 May 2025 thanks to a generous donor.
This means a donation of $50 will be matched to become $100, $250 becomes $500, and $1000 becomes $2000.
Your gift will support our Inspiring Explorers™ Education, Young Inspiring Explorers™, and Inspiring Explorers Expeditions™ programmes. We encourage young people to engage with the legacy the Trust cares for through creating opportunities to explore the physical world to educate and inspire them.
With the Trust’s administration costs funded by the New Zealand Government, 100 cents in every dollar gifted will go directly to programme costs.
Donations of NZD$5 or more are eligible for a donation tax credit from New Zealand Inland Revenue (New Zealand individual tax payers only, please contact us for international giving options).
As a donor, you’ll receive stories of impact about programme participants. You’ll also be invited to special events online or in your area, giving you the opportunity to hear stories from the Inspiring Explorers your gift supports.
