Journeys Within Non-profit

When you arrive in Cambodia it is immediately apparent that the people are struggling. Some are struggling to get started. Some are struggling to survive. Everywhere there are opportunities to help.

Within a few weeks of starting our business in Cambodia we knew there had to be more to living here than just Journeys Within Tour Company and B&B.

We wanted to be, we felt we had to be, involved in our local community and it came as no surprise to us when our guests started asking what they could do, how could they make a difference in the people’s lives. We even received e-mails from strangers, now friends, in the USA who had heard about us and having visited Cambodia years ago wanted to fulfill a promise to themselves that they would do something for the country.

And so we started a couple of small projects which began to grow into bigger projects and in no time at all we realized we should register as a non-profit organization in the USA to give what we were doing a sound basis, to make us accountable for donated monies and to enable our donors to claim tax relief for their contributions.

Thanks to wonderful friends in the USA who did all the paperwork for us we are now a registered charity, Journeys Within Our Community. You can visit our non-profit website at www.journeyswithinourcommunity.org for more information.

If you would like to combine a visit to Cambodia with  helping in the community please see our Give and Take Tour under Cambodian tours, or if you would like to make a donation please email to discuss how you can help.

We have been described as a leader in philanthropic travel and we truly believe that giving back as you travel enhances the travel experience as well as contributes to overall growth around the world.
