Help us reach the clouds - a cloud based computer system that is! Making us more efficient, secure and accessible.

Nationwide

Adventure Specialties Trust is passionate about transforming lives, seeing people overcome obstacles they imagined insurmountable and discovering their inner potential.

How do we achieve this?

Well that brings us to our other passion, great adventures in the wilderness places of Aoteroa. We have been providing adventure and wilderness experiences across New Zealand’s rocks, rivers, mountains, caves and coasts for more than 30 years. Our experience has lead us to believe there are few more transformative powers than learning experiences in the great outdoors (and the research backs this up too!).

While we have been busy providing our life-impacting, fear-overcoming adventures, our software and computers have, sadly, become digital dinosaurs. The modern world has caught up with us and we need to be brought up to speed (literally) so we can operate on a cloud-based system.

Becoming cloud-based will help us run more efficiently, securely and be more accessible. It means staff will have instant access to the information and files they need, wherever they are.

However, this all comes with a hefty price tag... and while we have purchased some new IT resources and we will be budgeting for future needs, right now we must raise $20,000 for the initial investment in new hardware and associated set-up costs.

Can you help us get there?

We need your help, whether it’s big or small every contribution helps!

Perhaps you have been on one of our programmes and know how cool we are! Or one of your kids has come back and you have noticed the difference that these experiences make! Or maybe you are one of our long time supporters and love what we do….

Can you spare $20 - $50 or even $1000 to get us there!

If not, can you share your experiences and our link with your mum, friends, neighbours, auntie’s, teachers best friends, heck even your 3rd cousin twice removed!

So, get clicking people! Partner with us and ensure we have the ability to reach the cloud, so we can keep offering our transformation adventures.
