GoPhilanthropic

Changing the way we treat the world...

The more fortunate people of the world have the resources to go virtually anywhere. We are also responsible for the majority of the pollution, natural resources consumption and landfill waste in the world. With our fortunate position comes an individual responsibility to minimize the negative effects of our travel and to support hotels and other travel suppliers who are committed to sustainable tourism practices. Let us direct you to them.

Tourism practices that are respectful of the natural and cultural environment of a given area and contribute in a positive and equitable way to the development and fulfillment of individuals living, working and staying in these areas.

• We practice what we preach...
• Working with Good People. GoPhilanthropic has partnered with accommodation providers that adhere to sound sustainable tourism practices including fair employment of a local workforce, and energy and environmental conservation best practices. Many of our partners have assumed a leadership role in community development efforts in their respective countries.
• We Contribute too. GoPhilanthropic donates 10% of its profit to efficiently run projects making a difference in the areas of Environmental Protection, Health, Education, Employment, and Empowerment of disadvantaged people with goals of self-sustainability.
