  4. The Non-Profit Dilemma Funding is a never ending challenge for non-profits Environmental Educational Religious Social Medical

  5. WORLD’S LARGEST INDUSTRY Travel is the world’s largest industry, and growing 23% faster than the global economy 7 Trillion dollar industry in U.S. (over 1 million dollars per minute) Travel is a “big ticket” item producing significant commissions UNIVERSAL APPEAL & DEMAND Everyone Loves to Travel Travel is expected to double to $14 trillion by the end of the decade INDUSTRY MARKET SHIFT On-Line Travel is the Fastest Growing Commercial Internet Segment 85% of personal travel is booked online Why Travel?

  6. How can YTB Help? YTB Provides a “Private Label” booking engine for the non-profit to use and market to their members and supporters. As members book their travel using the website it creates a consistent stream of commissions paid by third party vendors. A significant portion of these funds are paid to the association as royalties. The booking engine uses the same technology and provides the same features and prices as other online booking engines such as Expedia®, Orbitz® and Travelocity®.

  7. AIRLINE RESERVATIONS CRUISE RESERVATIONS HOTEL RESERVATIONS RCI TIMESHARES BED & BREAKFAST VACATION PACKAGES WEEKEND ESCAPES ISLAND RESORT PACKAGES RAIL TRIPS RENTAL CARS SITE SEEING TOURS Booking Engine Features • SPORTING EVENTS • CONCERT TICKETS • THEATER TICKETS • THEME PARK TICKETS • LIMOUSINE SERVICE • GOLF VACATION PACKAGES • GOLF TEE TIMES • RESTAURANT RESERVATIONS • SPA FINDER RESERVATIONS • AND MUCH, MUCH MORE

  8. A Simple Shift With 85% of travel booked online you are not asking members to do anything they are uncomfortable doing or they are not already doing. You are only asking them to shift their activity. Simply stated, all you are saying to your members or supporters is this: “We know you are going to book travel on-line. All we are asking is that you book your travel with us. You’ll receive competitive rates or better and you’ll be helping a cause you believe in.” Even a relatively low participation rate by membership can produce significant funds
