FUNDRAISING
RESOURCES
As you will learn in Antarctica, survival is all about “layers”.
Four Layers of Fundraising
We love sharing the life-changing experience and lessons of Antarctica with current & future changemakers - so we try to make the process as easy as possible. We provide four 'layers' of fundraising support, enumerated below:
FUNDRAISING GUIDES
The Fundraising Guides we provide outline recommended steps and proven techniques to support successful fundraising. They also include overviews of crowdfunding and video-based fundraising to help broaden outreach and donor engagement.
EXAMPLE CAMPAIGNS
Participants also gain access to successful fundraising campaigns from previous expeditions to help spark strategy and creativity. These examples highlight effective messaging, outreach tactics, and donor engagement approaches that have led others to reach—and exceed—their goals.
FUNDRAISING TEMPLATES
Our Fundraising Templates include a customizable sample email you can send to family, friends, and supporters to share your journey and request contributions. The template clearly communicates the purpose of your expedition and provides suggested language to inspire others to join your mission.
MEDIA LIBRARY
A curated library of professional photos and videos from previous expeditions is available to support your fundraising efforts and storytelling. These high-quality materials help you convey the purpose, impact, and inspiration behind your journey to potential supporters.

"I will be grateful to each one of you who wishes to contribute for my expedition. As a small token of appreciation I will be sending across a high resolution photograph shot by me, in Antarctica, to each one of you. The top three contributors for the cause, will also receive a personalised message from me shot in Antarctica.

"Through this expedition I want to hone my leadership skills with a generation of leaders across the world through brainstorming on a common vision of combatting the effects of climatic change. As an educator this is an opportunity to provide kids the knowledge to build resilient and sustainable communities. This expedition aligns with my long term vision of creating leadership models for children across the world
