Funding Explained

100% of your money goes towards the causes we avance.

Our commitment to you is that we do not use individual donations to cover operating expenses like marketing or accounting. Every dollar you donate goes towards our mission: to unite travel professionals through giving back to the communities we love.

Our goal is to keep operating costs low by relying on talented and generous Board Members and Volunteers who help us throughout the year. As an example, you have probably noticed (or will notice) our communications remain minimal, so that only the necessary money be spent on marketing.

Still, how do we cover our necessary expenses?

Picture of people putting their hands together in a show of solidarity and friendship.

1/ Select private Avancers (including our Founders) have agreed to donate resources towards operating expenses;

2/ Every year, a quarter of donations is allocated to micro-credit in underserved communities. Once the money placed in micro-credit has been returned by the communities we support, a small portion is taken to cover necessary operating expenses, while the rest is immediately reinvested in new community projects.
