We consider all of our group travel experiences to be purposeful journeys. Despite the inherent diversity in the types of groups and organizations we serve, nonprofits share attributes common enough to categorize those attributes as journey types. One of those journey types or categories is development travel. Development travel leads fellow travelers into shared experiences of historical, cultural, and intellectual sights and places with the potential to deepen commitment among donors, friends, and volunteers to enhance the mission of a nonprofit organization.
Deepen Connection with and Commitment to Your Mission and Vision
We warmly invite you into conversation around what the power of travel can do to support your advancement and development efforts.
As donors, friends, and volunteers share the experience of historical, cultural, and intellectual sights and places on a development journey, opportunities naturally emerge to connect in new ways with those who care about the mission and vision of your organization. An effective development journey focuses on the positive experience of donors, friends, and volunteers in ways that cultivate a deeper connection with and commitment to your mission and vision.
The purpose of an effective development travel experience may lead to a highly customized travel experience focused on cultivating a relationship with new donors, moving current donors to increasing their financial commitment, perhaps, to the level of a major gift, or leading donors, friends, and volunteers to consider their legacy in ways that can lead to giving through their will, trust, or bequest.
If you are actively engaged in a capital campaign, whether in the quiet or public phase, you may consider a presentation on the initiatives and goals of your campaign as part of your development journey. We will fully support the effective integration of messages and activities you create for your organization into a spectacular travel experience for your donors and prospective donors.
We encourage you to explore, to contemplate, and to dream of your interest in the power of travel to benefit your organization. We will help you identify your purpose for a development travel experience, choose your destination, consult with you on dates for your journey, and in every detail, support you every step along the way. We will also remain available to consult with you with regard to your desired level of engagement as a journey host.
