Travelers' philanthropy supporting local people in developing countries.

Travelers: When you travel you may come across a village, school or community that inspires you to want to give-back, contact us to see if we can coordinate with local ground operators in the community to insure that your goal is fulfilled. We may be able to structure the program to allow your donation to qualify for a tax deduction in the US. Read on for examples of successful projects that helped local people.

Tour Operators: Consider creating a Give-Back program in communities that are key to the success of your business. Organize the project so that your travelers might wish to contribute and further benefit the community. Donations may be tax deductible in the US. Read on for examples of how others have made giving-back a part of their core business plan.
