Bursary Partnerships
Partnering with Non-Profits to Give Youth a Memorable SALTS Trip
What are Bursary Partnerships?
SALTS often collaborates with other non-profit organizations who work with youth to provide SALTS trip funding for their participants. This could be a bursary for an individual young person that their organization nominates, or funding that provides a group voyage for 18–30 of the youth they serve. These partnerships follow similar guidelines to our other bursaries; the young people must be in financial need and/or facing challenging life circumstances (such as family breakdown, bereavement, recovery from serious illness, recent immigration, or other tough circumstances faced by young people from all walks of life).
Become/Recommend a Bursary Partner
If you know of or work with a non-profit organization that sounds like a good fit, email us! We love to connect with new organizations and explore the potential of partnering in this way.
