Help raise $5k or more and receive on screen credit.
A credit is not only for what you give.
In addition to donating, helping us raise $5,000 or more — by hosting a
fundraising event, launching a fundraiser, or making a Matching Challenge of $2,500+
that brings in $5,000+ — can also earn you a film credit of Special Thanks or
higher.
Film credits for What a Trip
Contribute over $5k and we will list your
name in our film credits.
If you help us to raise over $5k, we will list you in our film
“Special Thanks” credits. Help us raise over $25k
to be listed in our “Made Possible by” credits. If we missed
someone, or our website has a mistake, please
contact us.
Credits must be finalized before final cut is locked. Contributions made
after that point will continue to be recognized here on our website, but can no longer be
added to the finished film.
All credits are subject to editorial approval, including size, placement, order and content.
Title credits — those appearing before the film — are limited in availability,
and any logos or animation are likewise subject to editorial approval.

How it works
Credits for hosting an event or running a fundraiser
Bring people together for the film and you earn a credit of your
own — by what the event achieves, not by a share of the money. The
gifts made that night already appear on this wall, credited to the people who gave them.
Over $5,000 raised. You are listed in the film’s Special
Thanks.
Over $25,000 raised. You receive a “Made Possible by”
on-screen credit.
Matching challenges are different. A challenge credits its dollars to you in
full: your own money is at risk, and what it unlocks exists because of your pledge.
Your event’s total is not shown against your name — the
credit is the recognition. Want to host one? Close this and use Host an
event.
Gather your people
Host a fundraising event for What a Trip
Thank you for offering to host a fundraising event
for our film! We try and align events with Rick’s busy travel schedule. Any event that
helps raise over $5k earns our host a Special Thanks credit
— and $25k+ gets a “Made Possible by”
credit.
Let us know what you have in mind and let’s see what we can do.

Thank you for offering to host an event — we’ll follow up

Your donation is tax deductible
Every contribution to What a Trip is tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by U.S. law.
What a Trip is a fiscally sponsored project of Creative Visions Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Donations are processed by Creative Visions’ platform partner, Pledge.to, through the Pledge Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3). Your gift is received and receipted through the Pledge Foundation, so your emailed receipt and tax‑ID acknowledgment will come from them. The funds are then transferred to Creative Visions Foundation and, after platform and fiscal‑sponsorship fees, granted to What a Trip.
You can give by cash, ACH bank transfer, stock, donor-advised fund (DAF), crypto, or credit card. ACH transfers carry the lowest processing fees, so more of your gift goes straight to the film.
Right after you give, you’ll receive an emailed receipt to keep for your tax records. No goods or services are provided in exchange for your donation, except as otherwise noted for specific perks or rewards.
Please consult your tax advisor about your particular situation.
