GIVING TUESDAY & END-OF-YEAR-GIFTING

Don’t just travel, transform, and invest in a world where communities thrive.

Starting on Giving Tuesday, December 2, and through December 31, 2025, we’re asking you to partner with us so we can be greater together!

A long-term Crooked Trails family member has offered to match the funds raised this giving season up to $5,000! This is the best opportunity to join the family and make a difference this GIVING TUESDAY and support our total goal of $10,000!

Crooked Trails champions community-based tourism, empowering local people to use their cultural heritage and their region’s natural beauty to create their own solutions and drive sustainable development.

We believe in dignity, self-determination, and the incredible power of tourism as a force for good.

Your donation is an investment in self-sufficiency, education, health, and economic growth – all led by the communities themselves.

During the 2025 Gifting Season, be the change and empower global communities.

SUPPORT OUR GLOBAL COMMUNITY-BASED TOURISM PROJECTS

Crooked Trails’ mission is to support tourism-focused economic development projects in local communities around the world.                                                                                          All projects are implemented with a focus on environmental, economic, and social sustainability. 

We are excited to continue following our mission and focus on making positive change through financial support and project management training. We support global community-based development projects in partnership with tour operators, communities, and travelers. By working with tour operators and travelers, we can collectively make a tangible difference in the world. The projects we promote are created by global communities in the tourism industry that utilize the transformational power of travel to make a sustainable difference for tourists and the host communities they visit. We have observed first-hand that projects led by community members positively impact their community.
