Jane is well respected in the Tasmanian community and has won many awards for her work of excellence in the Travel Industry. Jane formed her own Travel Agency some 12 years ago, drawing on her vast experience in both the domestic and international travel arenas. Jane has travelled extensively and spent over 12 months living and studying in the USA & Canada before returning to her beloved homeland of Australia.

Richard Parker has a strong call on his life to ameliorate conditions in Africa. It was after Richard Parker returned from a life-changing trip to Zambia that we launched our Not for Profit Travel Agency, Richard Parker being one of three founding directors. Richard enthusiastically engineers several "Not for Profit" tours with "Travel With a Cause" and the profits derived from these bring hope, healing and empowerment to Zambia & other developing countries. Richard's passion is about Zambia and other African countries. His vision is to build schools, repair and expand existing schools and purchase farm land for the underprivileged people living in Zambia and similar countries so that these beautiful people will be afforded the opportunity for self-sustenance and the dignity of self-reliance. |

Our Company/Organisational
Credentials:
Our founding directors have extensive experience as travel agents and have all
owned and directed several travel agencies. Travel With A Cause Inc. owns this
website under license and trades as "Australian Discount Travel & Tours" and, as
"Knowhow Travel". Travel With A Cause's Management team acknowledges with
gratitude the support provided by Causation Nominees Pty Ltd via means of staff
expertise, client referrals, fiscal support and administrative support.
Under our rules of incorporation, all work undertaken by our Directors in their
capacity as members of the Travel With A Cause Inc Management Board is done on a
voluntary basis. This means that any work undertaken by Directors as Board
Members by law, is unpaid. Our Directors have no authority to take funds out of
TWAC for his or her own purposes. Moreover, it actually costs Directors to join
the Management Team as Board members because they have to pay annual membership
fees out of their own pockets. Therefore, all our directors are with us to "Make
a Difference" - they gain no financial advantage from their duties, except the
joy of making a difference in this world of need. Each year, TWAC is fully
audited as per the lawful requirements of the Australian Travel Compensation
Fund (TCF) and by law undertakes audit requirements of the State Department of
Justice (as per its review of all not-for-profit organisation financial
returns).
