Local Students Embark on a Transformative Journey to Ecuador: Here’s How You Can Help!

This summer, a group of thirty students from Newquay Tretherras, ranging from Year 11 to Year 13, are set to embark on a life-changing expedition to Ecuador.

Over the course of a month, in collaboration with Camp International, they will engage in various projects aimed at tackling some of the most pressing issues facing the region, all aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

A Mission to Make a Difference

The students’ projects are diverse, focusing on critical regional challenges in Ecuador. These initiatives are not only designed to provide immediate relief but aim to create sustainable improvements, fulfilling several SDGs. The students’ efforts will help lay down the groundwork for ongoing progress in areas that need it the most.

Urgent Funding Needs

To make this trip a reality, Newquay Tretherras needs to secure funds to cover essential travel expenses, including safe transportation to and from the airport. The school has launched a GoFundMe campaign, appealing to the community for donations, big or small, to support these young ambassadors on their noble journey.

How to Support

Contributions can be made through their online fundraising page at GoFundMe. Every donation, no matter the size, will help ensure that these students have the safe and secure travel arrangements needed to embark on and complete their mission.

Opportunities for Local Businesses

There is also a unique opportunity for local businesses to get involved. Companies that choose to sponsor the students will not only aid in this commendable cause but will also receive the benefit of advertising, as their logos will be featured on the Camp International t-shirts worn throughout the expedition.

Contact for Sponsorship

Local businesses interested in sponsorship can contact Newquay Tretherras directly at NTenquires@tretherras.net to explore this opportunity further.
