The Mad Foundation
Gap Jobs supports the Mad Foundation, which contributes to a variety of educational and health care initiatives, such as providing educational scholarships for children overseas. Everyone at Gap Jobs HQ is also encouraged to give 10% of their office time to help organise events that promote the Mad Foundation. As much money as possible is spent within the local economy on accommodation, employing cooks and drivers, using local transport and buying local food.

Madventure Travel Ltd pays all administrative costs of the Foundation, including office space and the salary of a full-time fundraiser to increase the amount of funds available to projects overseas. By doing this, we ensure every pound that goes into the Foundation is put to good use on development projects, rather than being absorbed into running costs.

We also encourage all of our staff to ‘do their bit’ by giving them 10% of their paid office time to help organise events that promote the Mad Foundation and other causes.
