The total cost of this project is $15,000 NZD ($8,600 USD)
Our Ganesh Himal Charity Trek guests have a fundraising goal of $500 USD.
During the Ganesh Himal Charity Trek, guests will have the honor of attending the opening ceremony of the new playground at Gogane Primary School. This meaningful event will be filled with heartfelt traditional dances, speeches, and expressions of deep gratitude from the local community, reflecting the transformative impact of their support.
A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY....
Fundraising Ideas For The Ganesh Himal Charity Trek:
Reach out to friends, family, and workmates: Share the story of Gogane Primary and the importance of this safety project. Explain how their donations will help provide a safer environment for the children. 
Organise a fundraising event: Whether it is a small gathering or a virtual event, every bit helps. Hosting a fundraiser to raise awareness and support for the school can go a long way. 
Create an online fundraising page: This is a wonderful way to share your journey and gather donations from a wider network. If you are in Australia, Canada, UK and USA platforms like gofundme.com are a good option. If you are in New Zealand, we recommend givealittle.co.nz
There are a couple of ways to gather donations and get them to the Active Hearts Foundation project fund.
A – You can gather donations until you reach your goal then send the total as a single donation on behalf of your supporters through the Active Hearts Foundation Gogane Wall Project webpage at Gogane Primary School Playground Safety Boundary Wall Project
B – You can direct your supporters to the Active Hearts Foundation Gogane Wall Project page at Gogane Primary School Playground Safety Boundary Wall Project and encourage them to donate directly. During the donation process, there will be an option for donors to add the name of the Ganesh Himal Charity Trekker they are supporting. Encourage them to add your name here and a record of the amount generated by you will be kept. 
The Active Hearts Foundation was founded in 2015 by your Heartspace Expedition mountain guides and close friends, Dan Keys from Aotearoa / New Zealand and Arjun Adhikari from Nepal.
