We believe travel has the power to create meaningful change. In 2025, Kensington Cares donated $6.3 million to 13 organizations, supporting trusted partners and high-impact projects across 15 countries and in support of our ocean. This work has been funded by the 1% Promise—our commitment to direct 1% of Kensington sales to charitable and community work—and generous Kensington travelers who have multiplied their trip’s impact by matching our commitment with their own donation.
In Masai Mara, a new Middle School serves 200 students and opens doors to a lifetime of possibilities. The removal of 20,000 kilograms of plastic waste across 45 communities in Egypt prevents ocean plastic pollution while providing income for collectors. A first-of-its-kind expedition in Comoros collected ocean data to inform critical knowledge gaps in our global understanding of marine life. Focusing on global conservation, poverty alleviation, and community development, we ensure the positive impact of travel extends well beyond the journeys we craft.
This is what it means to travel with purpose. We’re honored to be on the journey with you.

A Different Approach
We invest in our shared future through a growing collection of trusted partners who operate proven projects making a measurable impact. By prioritizing long-term partnerships which focus on impact, efficiency, scalability, and credibility & impartiality, we act as catalysts for positive change.
This approach, when paired with our commitment to match donations and cover all administrative and overhead costs, amplifies funding for our partners and creates ongoing ripples of change.
How We’re funded
We made The 1% Promise—a commitment to donate 1% of our annual trip sales—to charitable organizations and community projects around the globe.
Through Kensington travelers can match this contribution by donating 1% of their trip price, thereby doubling the impact of their trip. No overhead or administration fees. Every dollar goes directly to our partners on the ground.
