Our world is home to a host of natural and cultural wonders. But it is also a place of great need.
• More than 1 billion people do not have safe drinking water
• 10 million children under the age of 5 die each year from malnutrition
• 100 million primary school-age children are not in school
• Every year, some 20 million acres of forest are lost
A Sustainable Solution:
Travel and tourism is one of the world’s largest industries, and The Bodhi Tree Foundation was established to harness its significant resources to directly benefit local communities and the travelers who gain immeasurable joy by visiting them.
The foundation’s goal is to enlist the support of socially responsible travel providers and compassionate travelers
to help fund charities that promote education, healthcare, environmental initiatives, historic preservation and economic development in underserved areas.
