$140 will sponsor one child for the entire experience, including food, accomodations, insurance and events en-route, but you can make your tax-deductible donation in any amount you choose.



When you make a donation you will be using the "Network for Good" Giving System so you can be certain that your charitable donation is 100% tax deductible.


IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The Gatheer Institute has a strict policy governing all its activities:

We will never refuse an applicant becase their family is unable to pay for one of our activities. We also believe that a child will appreciate an experience even more if they have earned it.

This is the means by which, all kids, regardless of need, will be able to earn his/her $140 fee that will offset the various costs associated with the walkabout.

By asking all kids to write sponsorship letters, no one family is singled out on the basis of need. A kid sponsored at the $140 level will be considered paid in full for the walkabout. If a child already has a sponsor, his/her non-sponsored teammates will be the first beneficiaries, and after the whole team is sponsored, your money will go to sponsoring another kid on the basis of need.

In terms of the competition, each child will earn 1 point for every sponsorship their letter earns.
