JG Black Book of Travel’s mission is to share authentic experiences with others while preserving the world’s natural and cultural wonders.
We are committed to creating and fostering programs that safeguard the people, environments and cultures that make destinations unique. And we choose collection members that share our ethos and work with them to inspire consumers to be compassionate travelers.
JG Black Book of Travel is a founding sponsor of The Bodhi Tree Foundation and has made the commitment to donate 20% of revenue from its VIP Desk to the Foundation. The firm is also a supporter of AmericaShare, Harbor House, the Global Business Coalition, the Institute for the Economic Empowerment of Women and The New York Center for Children.
The Bodhi Tree Foundation is dedicated to supporting educational and environmental initiatives that successfully inspire positive change in underserved communities and endangered places throughout the world.
Inspired by the bodhi tree – the Foundation’s namesake under which Buddha first achieved enlightenment - the portfolio of programs supported by the organization reflects its core values – to illuminate, nourish and sustain.
The Bodhi Tree Foundation’s roots are in the travel industry and it was founded with the belief that sustainable tourism changes lives. By protecting the world’s humanitarian and natural treasures, the Foundation will help ensure a bright future for travel and tourism, as well as offer hope to people in need.

Harbor House works through community outreach to assist these families and ensure that the children are provided with a safe, healthy and positive environment.
