2026 Hero Travel Fund

Thank you so much for your interest in applying for the 2026 Hero Travel Fund!

To get started, we'll need to collect some contact information from you. Then, after we have received your basic info, we'll send you detailed instructions on how to complete your application for the Hero Travel Fund.

Eligibility Criteria

While every Hero Travel Fund (HTF) applicant has a unique story to tell, they share many of the same characteristics. The HTF was created for you if you have:

– A demonstrated history of making a positive impact in your community
– A desire to travel and use those experiences for learning and growth
– A need for financial support to bring your travel dreams to life
– Proficient written and verbal communication skills

The HTF is intended for people who have ‘given their life to something bigger than oneself,’ and who are making the world a better place every day.

Additional Notes

This award is not intended to be used as a research grant. This award is intended for someone who does not have the financial means to embark on the travel experience of their dreams using their own resources.

Next Steps
