Background:
This Association is a Not For Profit
International Travel Agency & Overseas Aid Organisation.
Our company works not only in travel but it also carries capacity to
accept direct donations from the public in order to distribute through its
trust fund, financial assistance to many projects.
We choose to fund a range of overseas development activities
that form part of a comprehensive, economic, social, cultural and
political process aimed at constant improvement of the wellbeing of the
entire population and of all individuals, on the basis of their active,
free and meaningful participation in development, and in the fair
distribution of the benefits that result from this process.
Many of our projects constitute development activities aimed to produce benefits
that will endure (a long term legacy) after our development assistance
have ceased.
Our overseas relief programs ensure provision of basic support to people
in emergency situations.
Some of our projects are located in developing countries, as
defined by the Australian Government's Department of Immigration and
Foreign Affairs through its related AusAid
Department, that conforms to the list of countries ratified by the
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD)
approved "developing countries"
lists. Note: The Australian Tax Office (ATO) has granted us
Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status
since 22nd May 2006. This means
we are able to offer Tax Deductible status to
some of our projects. Please call us for details for read below for
additional information. The related ABN is: 90 946 095 079
Likewise we choose
to fund those organisations that we consider "make a difference" in
countries other than those designated by the OECD as "Developing
Countries". Hence our mission includes our ability to sponsor missions
undertaken by various groups undertaking services & support to
Australian indigenous groups. Please ask our
Board for details about the projects currently sponsored.
Whether or not you choose to travel to a developing country (and of
course we can arrange this for you), just by booking any travel through
our association, you will experience the satisfaction that when you
travel, you will be assisting people somewhere in the world who our directors
perceive are in great need.
What and who do we sponsor?
Firstly, we support sustainable community development projects that
transform communities. We fund projects that focus on long term,
sustainable economic and social development that long term move
communities from "dependence mode" to economic and social independence.
Our desire is to assist the poor and needy.
