Eagle Nomad is building the relationships and evidence to help intentional travellers choose meaningful journeys and support community-led projects in East Africa. Initial validation visits have taken place with Amatsiko Tours (Uganda) and Steri Tours (Kenya and Tanzania). Eagle Nomad is pre-revenue, and its planned platform has not yet been built.

Funding sought: US$110,902.40 in non-returnable founding support—donations towards the development work. Supporters receive progress reports and optional acknowledgement. No shares, repayment or financial return are offered. Written agreements will cover the use of funds, reporting and treatment of unused funds.

What it funds: A planned 46-day Phase 3 process with up to four qualifying operators and their community partners. Work includes due diligence, community perspectives recorded with consent, photography and film, and a proportionate prototype informed by the findings.

The intended outputs are operator evidence packs and readiness assessments to inform future traveller participation and pilot journeys. Commercial viability and traveller demand will be assessed through the professional commercial readiness work included in this process.

The funding target is a planning estimate including contingency; outstanding logistics and permissions costs may change the total.
