This is very emotional story. Finally, a company is putting it's money where it's heart is. . .with the American people. YTB's founder and chairman of the board J. Lloyd 'Coach' Tomer is also a veteran paratrooper of the 82nd Airborne. He lost his first wife to cancer. He lost his congregation where he pastored because he wanted to bring black people into his church, but the elders said no-way. So he started a business and treated people like they should be treated in church. . . fairly. And as a result of his business success in the insurance industry, he took those millions to start YTB Travel, a company where he wanted people to win who had lost hope in corporate America's empty promises.
They call it YTB H.O.P.E. (Helping Our Patriots Excel).

See his story in the January 2007 issue of Success from Home Magazine, page 58

A MYSPACE FILE OF ONE OF OUR ASSOCIATES, Margaret and Nyela Nolden.



 


New Program; Helping Our Patriots Excel


This is such an unbelievable example of who our leaders are and what this Company is about.  This program is for our soldiers family''s and the soldiers who have either been killed during active duty or have come back injured such that they cannot obtain the jobs they would have otherwise been able to qualify for. 

 



 

These soldiers or families thereof will be given a Travel Store / YTB business.  They will get the 60% commissions of all the travel commissions and never pay one dime.   The remaining 40% will be given to Foundation Hope, which helps others who are in the same situation. 




 

Imagine how this could help that family if at the same time, the newspapers, etc. would advertise what has happened to this family / soldier and say this is how you, the community, can help this person the next time you go on vacation and give out the site address of their booking engine. 

 

If those individuals decide to participate in the Marketing Plan, the 50% match will go to Foundation Hope instead of going to the RTA that the soldier or soldier''s family was placed under.  If you know of anyone who falls in this situation, you are strongly encouraged to let YTB know so they can not just give a hand out, but lend a hand up for those families.  The link below is an audio file of what CEO of YourTravelBiz.com Scott Tomer had to say about this program. (See below).

 

Listen to Scott''s son Josh Tomer gives his testimonial in the link "YTB assists families of injured/killed veterans. He talks about his friends that won''t be coming home that died in Iraq and Afghanistan.

BRAVA, Cynth'ya, And YTB, for helping our veterans! I'd be interested in this, myself: I am a disabled vet. :) Will call you sometime later.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
