HELP – Senegal Unveils New Website

Monday, 08 Sep, 2008 0

Currently featured in the September issue of National Geographic Adventure magazine, HELP Travel, the small Senegal incoming Voluntourism Operator has unveiled a new website

H.E.L.P. stands for Human Experience Linking Project: a non-profit association promoting Local Community Development Programs, through special and unique Responsible Tourism itineraries.

The organisation assures a fair sustainable development of the local economy, by employing only local guides, workers and artists; by buying food and items locally; by promoting local activities, restaurants, markets and fairs.

20% of the cost of HELP Adventure & Discovery trips is invested directly into a Community-Based Development Projects Fund, used as to assure a continuous support to the communities HELP is committed with.

Working with communities, families and groups of people they have personally met and visited before, HELP projects promote a permanent development of the local economy, by assuring and providing needs, items and materials to local workforces, as farmers, croppers, agriculturalist, fishermen, women’s associations and artistic groups, who can then continue or restart their activities.

Traditions and beliefs are deeply respected, considered as precious treasures that our Planet still nurtures;

The new website is at www.HelpTravel.org
