Tue Sep 3 13:45:06 UTC 2024

Hi everyone,

For those of you who are thinking about travel next year I have traveled with a nonprofit called in bark Inclusive travel which takes travelers with disabilities with disabilities on international trips.

This summer I was in Japan with Embark inclusive which was why I wasn’t in Orlando for National Convention.

They have 2 trips coming up next year one being to Croatia and Slovenia in July after convention in New Orlands,and the second trip is to Australia and New Zealand in September and October of 2025.

If you are interested in these trips, please fill out the applications for the trip you are interested in on the links bellow.

Dear friends of Embark,

I hope you all had a wonderful summer- I know those of you who explored Italy or Japan with me certainly did! 

I'm excited to share information about our two 2025 trips and our scholarship program. Full itineraries and pricing for each trip can be found in the application forms below:

Croatia and Slovenia, July 16-26, 2025 <https://tinyurl.com/EmbarkCroatia> 

Australia and New <https://tinyurl.com/Australia2025>  Zealand, September 25-October 6, 2025

Dates on the trips could change by a few days up until a couple of months before departure.

If you are already signed up for one of the trips, great! If you applied and aren't sure of your status, or aren't sure if you applied, send me an email and I can let you know. If you already applied for Australia/New Zealand but would rather go on the Croatia/Slovenia trip, send me an email. 

We recognize that international travel is expensive. We raise money so we can grant scholarships for trips to travelers with financial need. Travelers who need financial support can say that on the application; we can help you decide how much you would need based on what you can afford to pay toward a trip each month. We grant scholarships to first time recipients first, and if we have enough funding we may then be able to support travelers who have received a scholarship on a previous trip. 

Our scholarship program relies on support from individual donors who understand the value of traveling with a supportive group and making new friends. Embark is a non-profit organization run with no paid staff and very few expenses, so we are currently able to dedicate 100% of all private donations directly to scholarships. If you are in a position to support Embark with a tax deductible donation, please consider doing so through our website <https://embarkinclusivetravel.org/donate> . We are also set up to receive donations through Facebook birthday fundraisers; please reach out if you would like help setting us as a recipient! 

Thank you, and I hope to travel with many of you in 2025! 

Sincerely,

Cara Gorham Streit, EdD, MSW, LCSW
