What Makes This Different From Every Other Non-Profit?

Traditional Charity

Donate $200 → Receive tax receipt for full amount → Hope money is used well → Get nothing tangible

Give A Trip, Get A Trip:

Invest based on destination → Receive premium t-shirt + $1,000+ hotel voucher + $50 tax deduction → See exactly how your contribution funds youth travel → Experience 1:1 value exchange PLUS tax benefits

Breaking the Statistics That Break Our Hearts

Only 37% of Americans hold passports. In underserved communities, that number drops to single digits.

Why this matters:

International travel increases cultural empathy by 42% (research)
Youth who travel internationally are 65% more likely to pursue higher education
Global experiences develop critical thinking, adaptability, and perspective
“Travel is the School of Life” isn’t just our slogan—it’s backed by decades of educational research

Your purchase directly addresses this inequality—and $50 is fully tax-deductible.
