WHY IT
MATTERS
Most companies want to support conservation but lack the time, expertise, and credible pathways to do it well. ATCF provides a turnkey, industry-led platform that turns their intent into trusted, scalable, on-the-ground impact.
We are your nonprofit.
EVERY
TRAVELER
HAS A ROLE IN
CONSERVATION
THE OPPORTUNITY
Adventure travel has grown into a massive global industry, built on the natural landscapes and cultural communities travelers seek out. Protecting those places isn’t just the right thing to do; it’s what keeps the industry viable for the long run.
“When we were looking for a way to give back, the global reach of ATCF’s work was what stood out immediately. iOverlander is used by travelers all over the world, and we want to fund projects our community might actually encounter on the road — from Cape to Cairo, Deadhorse to Ushuaia, Lisbon to Vladivostok.
What surprised us most was realizing that membership isn’t just about writing a check. As a member, you actually have a voice in what gets funded. That kind of involvement matters to us — it means we’re part of a real community making decisions together, not just a name on a donor list.
We’d absolutely recommend ATCF to any company that believes in the power of travel to protect and conserve.”
ATCF vets conservation projects to ensure project viability, monitors progress, reports back, and tells the story, so you don’t have to.
MOST COMPANIES

TO DO IT WELL.
FUNDING
PILLARS
We support communities in adventure travel destinations worldwide. Every funded project intersects tourism and at least two of our three pillars.
“ We love participating in the ATCF grant cycle because it helps channel support directly to grassroots projects making a real difference in the places our travelers visit. It’s a powerful way for travel to give back and for local communities to lead meaningful conservation and cultural initiatives.”
