Our Concept
As a result of long working hours, underprivileged households usually have limited family time. Many also find it almost impossible to afford the expensive cost of extracurricular activities. Children from grass-roots families therefore have lower accessibility to new knowledge, skills and also people.
We therefore promise to reinvest no less than 30% of our profit to our matching fund. With this matching fund, we subsidise grass-roots families to participate in travel activities. Based on our estimation, every 10 customers will support one grass-roots children/family member to take part in our tours or workshops. We hope that this can help lower the financial burden of grass-roots families and provide a chance for the children to exercise their rights of participating in extracurricular activities.
Uniqueness: Travelling × Learning
Travelling provides a platform to facilitate students' all-round development. Research found that students who travel frequently have a higher level of future skills, i.e. self-confidence, interpersonal skills, time management skills, leadership and cultural sensibility, etc.). Our tours integrate different elements to help participants to improve their future skills:-
-
Emphasis on "Design Thinking": to learn to adapt in this ever-changing environment and to dig deep into local and global issues.
-
Self-Led Learning: a set of interesting and innovative exercises to increase students' curiosity.
-
Integrating Technology: to integrate technology into travel to allow students to familiarise themselves with new technology and new media.
-
Systematic Reflection: via self-evaluation and group reflection before, during and after the trip, students can better evaluate their experience and feeling during the journey in a more systematic way.
