Student Horizons donates an amount of money each year to The Foundation of Student Horizons. The Foundation is a registered charity with DGR status.
The Foundation of Student Horizons was established by education travel company Student Horizons, who saw a gap to fill in the educational travel industry. The Foundation was created to fill this gap and ensure all youth have access to travel and experiential learning.
Founding Director of Student Horizons, Jamie Wansey is an avid believer that encouraging experiential learning through physical exploration is a must for today’s generation. He strongly feels that travelling young can provide a strong sense of global interconnectedness and develop a deeper understanding and tolerance for today’s ever-changing world.
Through more than a decade working in the youth travel industry, Jamie is convinced that combining education with travel has a lasting and positive effect on young peoples’ life choices and values. He became acutely aware that many young people were missing out on these life-changing experiences, so set out to change that reality.
It was with this vision in mind that The Foundation of Student Horizons was established; to provide support for disadvantaged youth, and help reduce the number of young people unable to take advantage of educational travel opportunities due to financial hardship.
