Services


At The Muskoka Foundation we are creating a portfolio of partnerships and programs that Overland Travelers can leverage when traveling the planet, to make a difference in the communities they visit. When we are creating these programs, we use a criteria of measuring them against the following six basic services that we aim to provide:

   
WHAT?!?
HOW?!?
Delivering
 

Useful items such as:
Pipes, mosquito nets, toilets, shelters, books, toothbrushes, soccer balls, etc.

 

Pick-up items for delivery from local partners

Use capacity of vehicles and Muskoka provided trailers
