This helped local Red Crescent teams to distribute:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Over 16 million hot meals&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over 13 million bottles of clean water&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over 50,000 blankets and 3,000 tents&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Intrepid also donated all profits raised through the sale of trips to <a href=\"\/turkey\">Turkey<\/a> in the first quarter of the year, and as always covered the Foundation\u2019s administrative costs, ensuring 100 per cent of donations went directly where they were needed most.\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>27 new ways we\u2019re creating impact&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve also welcomed 27 new partners spanning every continent and more than 20 countries. They support work in a range of areas, including conservation and wildlife, gender equality, human rights, youth empowerment, climate action and economic development.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s special about this new cohort is that our local teams on the ground helped us to select them. Intrepid\u2019s greatest asset is our people and with over 25 operations offices across six continents, we are in the fortunate position to tap into the knowledge of our local staff who know best what societal and environmental issues affect their communities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of these are small, lesser-known charities which would not otherwise receive international attention or support.\u202fThey include a woman\u2019s shelter for refugees and migrants in Greece (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theintrepidfoundation.org\/t\/amurtel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amurtel<\/a>), technical skills providers for Indigenous artisan weavers in rural Andean communities in Peru (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theintrepidfoundation.org\/t\/awamaki\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Awamaki<\/a>) and life-saving veterinarians caring for injured mountain and Grauer gorillas in Rwanda and Uganda (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theintrepidfoundation.org\/t\/gorilla-doctors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gorilla Doctors<\/a>).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And for the first time, we\u2019ve paired all our partners to specific Intrepid trips.<strong> <\/strong>This means that our global travelling community is guaranteed to either visit or learn about our partners\u2019 inspiring work every time they travel with us. Intrepid has also committed to making a $5 donation to the Intrepid Foundation on behalf of every customer.<strong>\u202f<\/strong>\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-scaled.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-63449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-425x283.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TIF-Coopertiva-Coraggio-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Intrepid CEO, James Thornton, meeting new TIF partner Cooperativa Coraggio in Italy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Growing our team and increasing our impact&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this would not have been possible without the support of our growing team, which has almost doubled in just one year and includes a newly appointed fundraising lead.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve also been buoyed by the \u2018all hands-on deck\u2019 approach of our broader Intrepid team, who have dived at any opportunity to support Foundation projects, including through their own fundraising!
