Our sponsors make the race happen — covering the boat, the crew, and everything it takes to compete offshore. But every dollar we raise along the way through events, donations, and fundraising? That goes entirely to children who need it most. That is why we sail.
Vortex Sailing keeps race funding and charitable fundraising completely separate. No mixing, no ambiguity — two distinct streams of money, both reported clearly and openly.
"We are sailing 27,000 nautical miles around the world. Through storms, through the Southern Ocean, through sleepless nights and moments of pure joy.
From the very beginning, our team decided: the platform we build through this campaign should do something truly meaningful for children.
The sea teaches lessons that no classroom can. Courage. Resilience. The belief that you can get through anything if the right people are behind you.
Every child deserves to feel that. And every mile we sail is dedicated to making it happen."
We are taking the decision of choosing our charity partner seriously. The organisation we stand behind will represent the heart of everything we are doing. It has to be right.
Our charity partner will be announced before our 2026 season begins. Here is exactly what we are looking for.
Sponsor the campaign, support the kids fund, or suggest a charity. Every form of involvement matters.
