Yes thats exactly what we do as a matter of fact.
We conduct these expeditions to raise awareness for the chosen charity and to raise funds for them, so they can meet a specific initiative.
By "initiative" I mean a specific program they are working on. We select a program that is a realistic goal for us and we move to assist complete that specific goal.
Our next two trips will be for WWF and the second for Sick Kids Foundation
www.sickkidsfoundation.com .
All of our team members have full-time jobs in a variety of fields, and these expeditions are conducted on our vacation time at NO PROFIT to us what-so-ever....
That being said...the question is raised "Well what do you call getting equipment and funds and vehicles donated to help you out?"
Quite simply answered: At the conclusion of our journey we auction off all of the equipment and vehicles and disperse ALL of the earnings directly to the charity we supported.....including any funds that were not utilized to service the team during the trip.....
At the end of each trip we are left with what we started with.....our regular bi-weekly paychecks, and our daily drivers and personal equipment that we bought on our own.
We take no profit and as such we are a registered Not for Profit Corporation.....
We simply do this to help people out....thats it....some people go to church, some people sponsor a third world starving child (all very well and good) but, this is what we do....to show we care and want to help.
My apologies for our site not being to descriptive, however, our Graphic Desgner over at
www.dstudio.ca is currently working on an AWESOME new site for us, and should be up soon, so with that we have not updated or refreshed too much information.
Thanks for checking us out though guys, and thanks for your questions and interest!!
