Various sponsorship levels in the campaign give contributors rewards ranging from book mentions, to video endorsements, to blog posts featuring sponsor companies. Thai, founder of travel blog Up Up and a Bear, has been traveling the world extensively for the past five years and has a passion for interviewing adventurers about their journeys. He recruited top writers, editors and ambassadors to contribute to the book, which contains anecdotes ranging from stories about volunteering during a political coup in Africa, to navigating the Sahara desert. "Travel, for me and so many others, is such a powerfully transformative way to impact positive life change," says Thai. "The team hopes The Trip that Changed My Life inspires readers to take their own journeys of self-discovery by exploring the world's wonders and meeting the people who inhabit them." All proceeds from the book will benefit Unbound and Save the Children. Unbound is the only child sponsorship program to receive a score of A+ from CharityWatch.
