Thank you for taking the time to review YTB Travel
Network’s Passport to Giving Program. I am sure you will
find it an innovative way to provide a dynamic and ongoing
source of new funding for your organization.
Our Travel Program is unique to the non-profit industry in
that it provides your organization with a private label
travel website branded with your organization’s name and
logo. The website is similar to Expedia® and has all the
selections and features of other online booking websites.
Your new travel website provides an alternate source for
your supporters to book their business and personal travel…
travel they are most likely already booking online. In
fact, current statistics show that up to 82% of all
personal travel is booked online.
It would be a simple shift for your supporters to book
their travel at your travel website. They would receive
competitive travel rates or better, and they would be
helping a cause in which they believe. According to a
recent Cone/Roper study, “86% of all Americans would likely
switch brands to support a cause when price and quality are
equal.”
Most importantly, each time your supporters book travel,
your organization will receive, as royalties, 60% of all
the travel commissions YTB receives from travel booked on
your site. This would produce a source of fresh money for
your organization. And, there is absolutely no additional
charge to your supporters for using the service.
It is also important to note:
• The program is not a long-term agreement. You are not
committed for any predetermined length of time.
• We help you develop a custom marketing program
to promote the website through your existing communication
channels.
• Travel commissions are paid by third party
vendors, not your supporters.
• Even a small portion of your supporters using
the program, still produces a huge financial windfall.
• The program requires virtually no management by
your organization. We track all the commissions for you and
you receive them by check from us.
Our program is extremely affordable, with only a one-time
set-up fee of $499.95. No monthly charges ever!
I would welcome the opportunity to provide more information
to you and anyone else in your organization who would want
to learn more about our exciting fundraising program.
If you have any questions, please contact me via phone or
email. Again, thank you for considering Passport to Giving.
Sincerely,
Lynn McCluskey

P.S. Travel is a $1.3 trillion industry in the U.S. alone.
In the time it took to read this letter, over $2.4 million
in travel was booked online. With Passport to Giving, part
of that could have gone to your organization.
