Travel is powerful. Done right, it can sometimes be hard and uncomfortable, but it changes you. It gives you empathy for all different kinds of people, cultures, and religions. It inspires gratitude, kills entitlement, and instills in you a deep responsibility to be a better global citizen. Traveling boosts your confidence to do hard things and gives you the courage to do big things.
Change through travel doesn’t magically happen because you left the country. TFY takes the Olympic gold in safe, intentional, life-changing travel. Every piece of each itinerary—every. teeny. tiny. detail—is carefully vetted and crafted to instill powerful change.
Our human family is in desperate need. With all we’ve been given, we each have an urgent responsibility to provide relief.
TFY takes a very different approach to LDS humanitarian trips. We are not building houses or schools, we are building youth. Instead of a one-time service project, we bring you up close to social causes that need your attention, and inspire a lifetime of involvement in humanitarian work and social impact.
Human trafficking, refugees and civil war, dirty drinking water, lack of education for girls, a dying ocean, extreme poverty… These are all causes that keep us up at night. Alone we cannot solve them, but with you and 10,000+ other committed youth engaging in a cause and making a difference, big changes will happen!

My entire perspective of travel, service, the world, and the Lord's children was shifted due to my TFY experience. The lessons that I learned from the trip leaders and the local people about the Gospel, love, hard work, and culture are priceless and lessons that I'll carry forever.
TFY gave my children amazing, life-changing experiences. We chose TFY because it offered a perfect blend of humanitarian, culture, & adventure. Kimball & Erin put in incredible amounts of work for these magical places, & provide a spiritually enriching environment. The organization, safety, & quality of these trips is impressive. I look forward to sending all of my children!
This eye-opening experience taught me so much! It taught me who I am, who I want to be, what I’m grateful for. I found the world is actually quite small but in great need, and that I have the power to do something about it. I wouldn’t trade this experience for ANYTHING. Big, big thanks to Travel For Youth!
TFY has been life-changing for our two daughters to experience different world cultures & eye-opening economic conditions, perform humanitarian service, and develop healthy daily habits that have helped build their strong testimonies. Eternal thanks to TFY.
