GIVING RANGATAHI THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE EXTRAORDINARY

One pivotal moment changed the course of Sir Ed’s life. At Hillary Outdoors, we want all young New Zealanders to have this opportunity.

With the incredible generosity of our supportive community, we provide scholarships to children living in hardship so they can have the same experience that Sir Ed had.

BUILDING BRIGHTER FUTURES FOR YOUNG NEW ZEALANDERS

We love that Hillary Outdoors has a place in the hearts of thousands of New Zealanders. The adventures were epic and the friendships forged were incredible but the buildings and gear needed some love.

We’ve made a few improvements and are on a mission to upgrade our Tongariro Centre with the help of our superstar supporters. 

MULTI-YEAR PROGRAMMES CREATE LASTING IMPACTS

Over three years, our multi-year programme builds on students’ learnings from the previous year.

“I’ve changed most of my ways in life. I’ve tried to be more of a leader through Hillary Outdoors and it’s taught me well. I’m showing more resilience and being more confident.”
