Support independent, professional guiding in Tromsø
Tromsø Guideforening (TGF) is a non-profit professional association working to strengthen guiding standards, safety, and responsible tourism in the Tromsø region.
Our work is based on voluntary effort, professional engagement, and transparency. Financial support helps us keep this work independent, accessible, and sustainable over time.
Why support TGF?
Support from individuals and organisations helps us:
- Maintain and develop our website and digital tools
- Publish standards, guidelines, and safety information
- Organise open meetings, events, and dialogue across the tourism sector
- Represent professional guides in discussions with authorities and stakeholders
- Support responsible tourism that respects nature and local communities
We focus on prevention, knowledge, and cooperation, rather than enforcement or commercial interests.
How you can support our work
1. Monthly supporter
Ongoing monthly support helps ensure continuity and stability in Tromsø Guideforening’s work. It allows us to plan activities, maintain our digital platforms, organise meetings, and contribute to long-term improvements in professional standards.
Monthly support is especially important for covering ongoing operational costs and ensuring that our work remains independent, transparent, and focused on the public interest rather than commercial pressure.
You can support TGF through:
• Stripe (monthly support platform)
2. One-time support
If you prefer to contribute once, you can also support Tromsø Guideforening with a one-time donation.
One-time support helps us cover specific costs such as events, meetings, educational materials, website operation, and administrative expenses. It also allows individuals and organisations to contribute without long-term commitment.
This option is suitable for:
• individuals
• organisations
• project-based or occasional support
3. Organisational support
Companies, organisations, and institutions can support TGF’s work without influencing its positions or decisions.
Organisational support contributes to:
- professional dialogue
- public information
- long-term development of responsible tourism practices
