Transforming Lives Through Compassionate Action

CDV Cares is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by Culture Discovery Vacations, committed to creating meaningful impact through five core community support initiatives.

Our Mission

CDV Cares is dedicated to creating positive change in communities around the world. Founded by Culture Discovery Vacations, our 501(c)(3) non-profit organization is committed to five core initiatives that address critical needs while celebrating and preserving cultural heritage.

Through our programs, we aim to support vulnerable populations, ensure food security, preserve cultural traditions, protect the environment, and empower individuals through education. Our Dream Destination Support program further extends our mission by providing transformative travel experiences to military service members and individuals facing serious medical conditions.

We believe in the power of compassionate action to transform lives and communities. By combining direct support with sustainable solutions, we create lasting impact that honors local cultures and empowers individuals to thrive.
