Sustainability means travelling with conscience

Every Merit Travel Consultant has the opportunity to travel the world. We have learned that our actions, no matter how small, profoundly impact the people in every country we travel to.

To maintain a positive impact, our team at Merit Travel has developed a unique relationship with WaterAid Canada.

THINK LOCAL, ACT GLOBAL

WaterAid is an international non-governmental organization. WaterAid's mission is to transform lives by improving access to safe water and improved health, hygiene and sanitation, in the world’s poorest communities.

Merit Travel is committed to supporting this cause, by partnering with WaterAid Canada, to see out the vision of a world where everyone has access to these basic needs.

So far, Merit Travel has contributed to fundraising and creating public awareness for projects in Ethiopia and Tanzania, as well as projects currently being implemented in India. In addition to our employee payroll donation program, during campaign periods a percentage of our profits are donated to WaterAid, and we hold several events to raise public awareness.

Our most recent fundraising efforts are focused on Project Boond in the state of Bihar, India. Our contributions will help improve the quality of life for marginalized communities in the Gaya and Madhubani districts of Bihar by supporting sustainable community-managed water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities and services.

THREE WAYS WE CONTRIBUTE TO CHANGE

1

Community Development

Many communities around the world do not have sufficient education and infrastructure. Our relationship with WaterAid Canada, enables our team to contribute to communities in need.

2

Environmentally and Culturally Aware

We work with preferred travel partners who share values similar to our own. We encourage travel that supports nature and wildlife conservation, cultural and livelihood preservation and sustainability.

3

Fundraising for Greater Good

We fundraise across the Merit Travel team and commit a percentage of our profits to WaterAid Canada.
