Planeterra is the world’s leading non-governmental organization turning travel into impact in communities. Planeterra helps local organizations and communities use tourism as a catalyst to improve people’s lives, protect their natural environments, and celebrate their culture. Put simply, it is a better kind of tourism – improving the lives of community members as they provide travellers with better experiences.  Our goal is to break down barriers for local enterprises to achieve their unique goals – be it women’s empowerment, cultural celebration, environmental sustainability, improving access to healthcare and education, or breaking down barriers for communities often left behind. Join us and uplift tourism!

Projet Communautaire de Pierrefonds (PCP) is an impact-focused, community-centric organization providing valuable programs and services that offer social, academic, linguistic, and emotional support to underprivileged kids and their families across the West Island - particularly in the areas of DDO, Pierrefonds-Roxboro, and Sainte-Geneviève - which have the highest percentage of families living in poverty and vulnerable situations. Since 1995, PCP has been passionately committed to helping vulnerable families - particularly new immigrants and refugees. Our distinction is that we are based in the community, for the community - and offer barrier-free, high-quality, affordable programs for all vulnerable families and children.
