Traveling in the United States these days can be fraught with challenges for anyone who cares deeply about human and environmental health and wellness.

In too many states too many public policies directly harm women, children, people of color, indigenous families, LGBTQ+ individuals, the economically disadvantaged, immigrants, voting rights, books, wolves, water, and wetlands. Civil liberties, the environment, and public health are under attack as well. Not to mention guns, Social Security, healthcare, and the climate crisis.  

And wherever you travel your travel dollars support the state and local economy and therefore the policies of the places you go.

Which is why at Offsets for Humanity, we found a way to fight back. 

Make Your Travel Moral

Offset your travel today.

Every time you travel, Offsets for Humanity allows you to neutralize your economic impact by providing support to carefully selected locally based nonprofit or advocacy groups who are on the frontline advocating for people or the planet.

All you need to do is choose your destination, your issue, and your Offset amount, and our safe financial transaction hub will guide you through.

How Does It Work?

Modeled on carbon offsets but with more immediate results, Offsets for Humanity draws attention to pressing areas of social or environmental concern that are in dire need of attention and invites travelers to provide funds that can be directed to “offset” those issues.

Offsets then provides those funds to trusted nonprofit and advocacy organizations who work effectively on those issues and deliver results. This pairing enables travelers to offset issues they care about in the places where they travel and empower organizations in real time and sustain them. The more Offsets people make, the more the advocates can accomplish.

Offsets for Humanity is also an educator and advocate, and offers travelers information on the issues. Offsets’ blog and social media feature news, stories, and statistics that enrich travelers’ knowledge and provide ways to more deeply engage on the issues.

Facts and Figures

In 2023, domestic and international travelers spent $1.3 trillion in the United States which produced an economic footprint of $2.8 billion.

In 2022, over $120 billion was spent in Florida alone where it contributed more than $16 billion to local coffers in a state where on the ground advocates are working to end the death penalty, Don’t Say Gay, manatee loss, and the disgraceful distortion of America’s racial history.

If every one of the 135 million visitors there offset their impact by just $10 last year, local advocates would have had $1.35 billion with which they could advocate.

Contribute an offset today and help abolish the death penalty, protect manatees, prevent the rollback of child labor protections, ensure truthful education about Black history, and advance LGBTQ+ rights.

While Offsets for Humanity is not tax exempt and offset purchases through Offsets are not tax deductible as charitable contributions for Federal tax purposes, Offsets’ unique funding model puts much needed general operating dollars into the hands of the people who need it.

Offsets for Humanity’s mission is made possible by an Impact Fee that helps cover the cost of identifying trustworthy organizations and matching them with travelers who wish to help.

We are truly grateful for your support
