Cadence raises $23,175 for GenerateHope in one month
We've joined the fight against human trafficking and are ready to make a big impact. As part of our partnership with ECPAT, this year's 2017 annual holiday charity benefited GenerateHope.
As a travel management company, we have a naturally heightened awareness of the world around us. This includes the inspiring possibilities of travel as well as, unfortunately, the outlet it creates for human trafficking and exploitation. We are proud to say we have officially began our partnership with ECPAT, which stands for “End Child Prostitution and Trafficking,” and further, have signed the Tourism Child-Protection Code of Conduct. Leveraging our place in the travel industry, we will spend the upcoming years bringing awareness and education to our clients and travel partners. Together, we are all a part of this fight and can make a powerful difference.

A message from a survivor:
"In this season of healing and recovery, living at GenerateHope has given me a second chance at life. They have helped me to deal with the issues that have been troubling me throughout my life and given me tools to better handle trauma. It has helped me to take each day of sobriety as a gift, to celebrate recovery. I know now I can choose to be a whole new me and it has given me the confidence that I can be the woman I want to be. GenerateHope has helped me realized my full potential. It has helped to confront the skeletons in the closet and slay the dragons. GenerateHope has give me a safe place where I can heal and grow."

This year, we’re celebrating our 25th year in business. To mark this incredible milestone, we’re taking a look back in order to look ahead, exploring our history through some of the stories, people, and places that have inspired our journey. Recently, our CEO and Founder Wendy Burk had the opportunity to reconnect with Ruth Rittmeister, her first boss and mentor in travel. Ruth is an industry icon, and a really important person in both Wendy’s life, and the life of Cadence. We conducted this interview with Ruth via ZOOM, her first-ever virtual call! We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Thank you, Ruth!
This past week, I had the incredible honor to attend the Associated Luxury Hotel International’s (ALHI) Leadership Summit in Sea Island, Georgia. For months, ALHI and their inspirational leader, President & CEO, Michael Dominguez have been leading the industry with their COVID-19 response, thought leadership, and confident re-assurance that we can bring meetings back safely. It was a joy to be in attendance and see their well-thought-out approach to safe and productive meetings in real-time.
As global citizens, our lives were profoundly changed by the events that took place on this day in the year 2001. Our world of travel, this incredible community and family that we love, owes so much to this fateful day. In so many ways, we are here because of 9/11. We carry on for those who cannot. Today, we’re sharing a message of hope and resiliency, as we look back in order to move ahead.
We can be the clouds or we can be the sun. Today, and every day, be a ray of light. Be a beacon of peace. Be the sun in someone else’s life and burn through the clouds of obscurity. Choose to be kind. It’s the one choice that eliminates so many others, and the only one that is universally applicable.
It is National Travel Advisor Day, and now, more than ever, it is important to work with a travel advisor. Wondering what the benefits are to working with a travel advisor?
