Our Charities

North South Travel is owned by the North South Travel Development Trust. All profits earned by the sales of flight tickets are held by the trust and paid out in grants twice a year.

Hundreds of charities and groups have been supported by these donations, and thousands of lives have been impacted by the projects that North South Travel supports.

HEALTH

We provide funds for small health charities working with remote and marginalised communities to build healthier lives for themselves. The money pays for primary healthcare, family planning, childhood immunisations and nutrition advice.

EDUCATION

Money donated from North South Travel supports education in disadvantaged rural areas and towns. Books and laptops, girls’ sanitary supplies to prevent absenteeism, and dormitories for boarders from remote areas are all part of the mix.

WATER

Charities we support are critical in alleviating water scarcity in developing countries. We give funds to charities that combine technical and traditional solutions to make best use of unpredictable rains and to deepen and repair essential wells.

COMMUNITY

We donate to charities that provide micro-loans to people in neglected communities. By assisting people with training and capacity-building the loans strengthen families and social networks, and increase their resilience in a changing world.
