OUR PROGRAMS
Creating opportunities for parents and children to explore the world together.
FAMILY TRAVEL is…
TRANSFORMATIVE
Travel encourages us to leave behind the comforts of home in favor of that which is new and different; to forge a more meaningful relationship with the world (and people) all around us.
INSPIRING
Travel keeps us moving forward in search of that next great adventure. It also helps us prioritize what is most important in life, so that we are always ready and open to whatever comes next.
EDUCATIONAL
Travel is about learning through experience. It can teach us to navigate life’s toughest challenges by making us more resilient and preparing us for inevitable change.
POSSIBLE
Travelnitch was founded to share a love of and access to travel. From virtual adventures to travel grants, we are making sure the travel lifestyle and its’ many benefits are accessible by all.
TRAVELNITCH.ORG
Our website was built for both parents and kids interested in virtual exploration. We aim to inform and entertain through a variety of topics including book recommendations, product reviews, travel stories, hands-on learning activities, and cultural oddities.
TRAVELNITCH PUBLISHING
As a nonprofit publisher, we are increasing the availability of travel content written specifically for kids. Our focus is on children’s fiction and Young Adult (YA) travel narratives.
FAMILY TRAVEL GRANTS
Travelnitch donors are turning dreams into reality with the gift of travel. Our family grants program provides funding to families who might not otherwise have the access and opportunity to travel together.
VIRTUAL TOURS
We inspire young travelers to explore the world from home, primarily through Postcard Pals. We also partner with tour operators to share virtual opportunities that engage kids through cooking, language, and other cultural activities.
