Travel shapes young people and young people change the world.
mission: help young people in vulnerable situations grow thanks to the benefits of youth travel
Receive up to $10,000 to give your students an unforgettable trip
True to its mission of helping young people from disadvantaged backgrounds thrive through the benefits of youth travel, the Saintlo Foundation is launching a new edition of its “Travel Assistance” grant.
Grade 5 or 6 classes enrolled in a disadvantaged school in Quebec can receive up to $10,000 to organize a school trip in spring 2026. The deadline to apply is December 15, 2025.
Does your class not meet the grant criteria? The “The World and Me” program is a free support kit offering challenges and resources to enrich and support your school trips.
To learn more about the grant and download the kit, visit the Saintlo Foundation website.
$1 per night is donated to the foundation
Would you like to help young people who don’t have the opportunity to set off on adventure? Us too! That’s why we give $1 to the Saintlo Youth Tourism Foundation for every night spent at a Saintlo hostel*. If you’d like to help out even more, you can also contribute in another way. Contact us to find out about the options.

What’s important for us
Equal opportunities
Synonym for democracy and inclusion
Regardless of the youth’s circumstances, access to our programs and projects will allow them to learn new skills and receive financial support that will foster a travel experience that will change their life perspective
Solidarity
Acceptance and caring
The values we live, we share with joy. The young people will experience acceptability and kindness. They will feel the harmony that reigns in the youth hostels. They will be respected and will participate with us in promoting peace in the World.
Leadership
Resilience and autonomy
Through their journey or experience, we expect youth to positively influence their environment and transform their lives according to their desires. Our hope is that they will emerge resilient, with more autonomy, leadership and freedom.
Where ya wanna go?
Our territory follows the Saint Lawrence, a seriously endless and not always gentle river. From the Gaspé Peninsula through Ontario and the Great Lakes, we love hosting you at our youth hostels so that you can see the country. We want you to experience our big cities and epic nature like a local.
