Gift of Education

WorldStrides Heritage Performance program versions now available!

Since November 2010, 2,500 students have raised more than $625,000 for their trips exclusively through the Gift of Education!

The Gift of Education is a successful, easy fundraising strategy that relies on small gift donations from friends, family members, and local organizations to help fund students’ trips. Using customized letters or E-Cards, students can easily send out dozens of gift requests that explain the educational benefits of a WorldStrides trip and request a small donation. WorldStrides DiscoverNow! participants can also use our Gift of Education Facebook Share to post a link on their Facebook wall requesting contributions directly to their account. Friends and family members will love knowing that they helped a student enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience!
