Pack For A Purpose

Small Space. Little Effort. Big Impact.

BlueFoot Travel Supports Pack for a Purpose

BlueFoot Travel is proud to become a member of an exciting initiative called Pack for a Purpose. 

Pack For A Purpose Logo. Small Space. Little Effort. Big Impact

Pack for a Purpose, allows travellers like you to make a lasting impact in the community at your travel destination. If you save just a few kilos of space in your suitcase and take supplies for the projects we support in need, you’ll make a priceless impact in the lives of local children and families.

Since 2010 the ‘Pack for a Purpose’ global travel community has donated more than 165,728 kgs (364,601 pounds) of supplies meeting essential needs in over 60 countries. Each project supported provides a detailed list of the supplies they need and Pack for a Purpose guides you on how to pack what is needed in just 5lbs / 2,27kg.

Small Space. Little Effort. Big Impact.

BlueFoot Travel has arranged to support projects with the Charter Yacht Society in the BVI, Blue Grenadines in Bequia, and with Sunsation Tours in Grenada.
