ALTOUR Gives Back

From providing aid for victims of natural disasters, to offering educational opportunities for those less fortunate, ALTOUR is mindful of giving back to the world in unique and impactful ways. As a leading global travel agency, ALTOUR contributes to worldwide philanthropic organizations in numerous ways, including:

• The Environment: Through ALTOUR “Goes Green,” ALTOUR supports charitable organizations working to combat climate change and otherwise improve the environment. As part of a sustainable development effort in Africa, ALTOUR contributes funds to the Green Belt Foundation to plant a small forest.
• Disaster Relief: In 2005, ALTOUR conducted a charitable matching campaign to raise significant donations for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Please see http://www.americares.org/ for more information. Also in 2005, ALTOUR conducted a second matching campaign to provide much needed aid to the victims of the Tsunamis.
• Education & Humanitarian Efforts: ALTOUR sponsored the Bal des Berceaux, an annual auction by the French-American Aid for Children, which provides financial aid to institutions helping disadvantaged children with education, medical treatment, activities and opportunities for advancement.
• Cancer Research & Care: ALTOUR contributes annually to the Pediatric Oncology department of the Sheba Medical Center, a leading treatment center for children with cancer.

The above is just a small sampling of the numerous ways in which ALTOUR gives back to the community. For more information on ALTOUR, please visit http://www.altour.com/.
