Adventurer, film maker & author, Mark Beaumont, has become involved in the new, ambitious social enterprise project – My Million To One – in a bid to enable more adventurers to live their dreams.
Mark was first inspired to go on expedition at the age of 12 after reading in a local newspaper about a cycle from John O’Groats to Lands End. For the next decade Mark’s ambitions and experience developed until, after leaving university, he set out to make a career in broadcasting & adventure.
As a broadcaster who has been adventuring since an early age when not travelling on TV projects & expeditions, he is often speaking at events, involved in various charity & educational work, book writing or in training.
Since he knows how daunting it can be for anyone to live a life that’s as uncertain as it is exciting, he has volunteered his time as a gift, to help anyone believe that they too can live the life of their dreams, whilst offering them useful tips & professional insights on how he achieved sponsorship and recognition for all that he’s achieved.
On the 31st August 2013, Mark will be holding a webinar to talk about his adventures as an explorer & broadcaster and what motivates him & inspires him. He’ll also be able to answer your questions and offer advice for those seeking their own adventures.
You can register for the event via My Million To One here.
What is My Million To One?
A young British woman, Alana Hurd, was asked to found a home for abandoned disabled children in Southern Africa, whilst volunteering in the area. Knowing that it would be a huge task to set up a new local charity, instead she approached a couple of small, local charities that she knew very well and they agreed to adopt the children & give them a home but she had to meet two criteria in order for the arrangement to go ahead:
- Find money every year to pay for the children’s home, plus all their needs, education & rehabilitation costs.
- GUARANTEE that the money would be provided for their lifetimes.
She has found a totally unique way to do it, the aforementioned, My Million To One, a brand new concept based on one simple premise: Everyone is entitled to achieve their dreams.
