No. The Nature Conscious Tourism Initiative helps organizations worldwide. However, organizations based in the South-Eastern US or the Caribbean receive priority.
No, your organization does not need to be a nonprofit to receive free services from NCTI. However, organizations that are 501(3)(c) nonprofits or the international equivalent receive priority.
NCTI is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to making conservation tourism a force for good. We recognize that ethical tourism operations often lack the funding and resources to compete with large, profit-driven attractions. Our goal is to level the playing field and help ethical tourism thrive.
We do not provide free domain names or web hosting directly. However, we can help connect nonprofits to free or discounted hosting options.
Applying is easy! Contact us through our website, tell us about your organization and needs, and we’ll determine how we can best support you.
It depends on the service! Some improvements, like SEO optimization, can take weeks to show in search rankings, while website overhauls and consultations are scheduled based on availability. Once you apply, we’ll provide a timeline based on your specific needs.
If your organization doesn’t meet our criteria, we can still offer low-cost services that may help.
If you run a conservation-driven tourism attraction or organization, we want to help you grow, reach more visitors, and make a lasting impact—for free.
