Wild Frontiers Foundation
The Wild Frontiers Foundation is the philanthropic arm of Wild Frontiers. Set up in 2009, the aim of our foundation is to provide a platform to create awareness, raise money and deliver funding to projects in countries where we operate as a travel company.
Supporting communities we visit has always been at the heart of the Wild Frontiers' ethos. Through the Wild Frontiers Foundation, we are able to channel money into grass roots projects, which we have either established ourselves or support through charity partners. These include initiatives focused around education, the empowerment of local people and community conservation.
While we run campaigns and fundraisers throughout the year, to further support our work a £5 donation is made to the foundation on behalf of every client that travels with Wild Frontiers.
With management and administration costs covered by Wild Frontiers, 100% of all funds raised go to the projects we support.

Emergency Relief
Pakistan Flood Appeal
As the news and shocking images came out of Pakistan at the end of August 2022, we responded with the launch of an emergency flood appeal to assist with the disaster relief efforts. The appeal raised in excess of £11,000, the majority distributed through our charity partner, the Aga Khan Foundation and its Network Development agencies. Funds were also donated to communities in the Kalash Valleys to restore water channels.
Afghanaid Humanitarian Appeals
The Wild Frontiers Foundation is a proud supporter of Afghanaid, a humanitarian charity working tirelessly to support the people of Afghanistan. During challenging times in 2022, made worse through drought, the Wild Frontiers Foundation donated £1330 to the Afghanaid's Crisis Appeal to fund food parcels for 20 Afghan families for four months. Again in 2023 we donated £1000 to support earthquake relief.
Kalash Valley Floods - Pakistan
After unexpected heavy rainfall in northern Pakistan in July 2013, a flash flood tore through the Kalash Valley destroying much in its wake. In excess of £4000 was sent to the people of the Kalash, a marginalised minority tribe in this remote and almost inaccessible region, to assist with recovery efforts and help rebuild the water channels, fix damaged buildings and plant new crops.
