Giving

An Airstream Adventures Core Value

Of our six core values, Giving is perhaps the most important. Our commitment to Giving is inspired by:

    • Giving a helping hand, rather than a handout, leads to long term change
    • If you can, you should – get involved in your community any way you can Start local, give global. Don’t limit yourself!
    • The true measure of a business’s success is how much time, talent or treasure they can allocate to giving back and paying it forward
    • The walk should be greater than the talk

Giving Activities:

Children's Center, Clackamas, Oregon

Children's Center
Annual Gala
Clackamas, Oregon

The Children’s Center is a private, non-profit child abuse intervention center accredited by the National Children’s Alliance.

If we believe that kids are our future, we need to do something to make sure that their future is bright. That is why Airstream Adventures has partnered with the Children’s Center to sponsor the annual Gala event to continue to provide support for children who have suffered at the hands of abuse. Airstream Adventures’ Core Values of Giving and Respect are in alignment with the mission and values of the Children’s Center to help keep children in the light. 


National Forest Foundation

National Forest Foundation
Protect the Destination
Missoula, MT

The National Forest Foundation was created with a mission to bring people together to restore and enhance our National Forests and Grasslands. You can donate today to ensure these landscapes continue to provide countless benefits to all who depend on them.

Airstream Adventures has partnered with the National Forest Foundation since 2021, joining with the commitment to Protect the Destination. 120,001 trees were planted in celebration of our 11th anniversary. These newly planted trees will offset an estimated 5 years of our Guest's carbon footprint while they enjoy their Airstreams. Our dealer group is committed to protecting the environment and has adopted Conservation as a Core Value to preserve the beautiful natural lands that we all dream of exploring.


Youth Villages

Youth Villages
LifeSet Program, Gift Tree
United States

Youth Villages is a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to helping children with emotional and behavioral problems and their families live successfully. Youth Villages help set children and young adults up for success by organizing supply drives that provide access to healthy food, activities and other resources that might be difficult to come by.

Airstream Adventures provided generous donations to Youth Village in 2021. The donations went to Youth Village’s LifeSet program, a comprehensive support program that helps young adults aging out of the foster care system, often having layers of unaddressed trauma and little to no support to prepare for successful adulthood. Airstream Adventures has also been an annual supporter of the Holiday Heros drive hosted by Youth Villages, fulfilling wish lists for over 285 youth in these programs. Airstream Adventures went above and beyond for the holiday program, donating extra gift cards that allowed families to provide essential supplies for their children to have better access to therapy and education.

“We are so fortunate to have community partners, like Airstream, actively supporting the young people and families we work with.”
-Jonathan Whitmore, Youth Villages


Cycle Oregon

Cycle Oregon
The Classic
Portland, Oregon

Cycle Oregon doesn’t just expose riders to richly diverse Oregon communities, it also provides much-needed financial support to those communities. Proceeds from the rides have been placed in the Cycle Oregon Fund at the Oregon Community Foundation since January 1996, when Cycle Oregon created its fund at the Oregon Community Foundation.

Airstream Adventures has sponsored Cycle Oregon events for the past 10 years after CEO Ted Davis discovered his neighbor’s connection to the organization. A mutual love of the outdoors, speed, and supporting community causes led to a partnership that still thrives today.
