How the project is funded
In Barefoot’s own words, from the expedition FAQs.
The bulk covers the day to day running of the project: food, accommodation, fuel, local wages. The rest funds community projects directly: school books, medical supplies, renovation materials, teacher and science staff wages, and support for local university students conducting research with us. We're big on transparency, you'll see exactly where it goes.
