Our Mission: One Pie. A Much Bigger Impact.
Your Thanksgiving Dessert Can Help Change a Student’s Life.
The Traveling Youth is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to making life-changing study abroad opportunities accessible to financially constrained college and trade students ages 18–25.
For many of our students, traveling internationally would simply not be possible without scholarship support.
Through our immersive month-long study abroad programs, students get the opportunity to:
- Experience new countries and cultures firsthand
- Build confidence and independence
- Develop emotional intelligence and leadership skills
- Expand their understanding of the world
- Discover new possibilities for their future
These experiences go far beyond a vacation. They help students develop skills, perspectives, and connections they can carry with them for the rest of their lives.
And YOU help make it possible.
When you bring one of our Berry Custard Pies to your Thanksgiving table, you’re doing more than serving dessert.
You’re helping give a student the opportunity to see the world differently.
