Travel does not simply encompass long distance journeys spanning half the globe. People often make efforts to travel to another city, across states, or even to another region of their city that they haven’t seen before. iJourneyGreen is based in San Diego and most San Diegans make their travels between North County unto the more Southern areas spanning the border. The impact of commuting is not only felt by taking trips through the airway, but it is felt locally as well. According to an article written in 2009 by Move San Diego, the average San Diegan drives 23.7 miles a day. That is a lot of miles which impact not only the environment but the community of San Diego, itself.
Casa Familiar is a San Diego based community organization which works to help better the San Diego areas with holistic programs to outreach to the community. With various arts, cultural development, human resource, and over fifty other programs, Casa Familiar strive to enhance “the quality of life through education,advocacy, service programming, housing and community economic development.” Our travels impact not only communities we visit, but in communities that we live in. Consider giving back to creating a better community and check out iJourneyGreen’s travel credit page for Casa Familiar as well as Casa Familiar’s own website.
