Pack For A Purpose

Small Space. Little Effort. Big Impact.

BlueFoot Travel Supports Pack for a Purpose

BlueFoot Travel is proud to be 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 and The Lookout in Bequia.
