Kindness

Empathy + Action = Care

At ALG Vacations®, care is at the core of our values. We believe there is no better way to uphold it than through kindness, reinforcing that vision through three pillars of action. Our Kindness Movement brings empathy and action together — uplifting each other, supporting our communities, and spreading positivity across every journey we take.

Kindness Contributions

In celebration of World Kindness Day and the season of giving, ALG Vacations® proudly awarded 18 Kindness Contributions in 2026 totaling $10,500 to travel advisors leading meaningful initiatives in their communities and destinations.

 

The response to this year’s program was incredibly moving. We received an overwhelming number of thoughtful and inspiring applications from advisors committed to making a difference. While we were only able to select 18 initiatives, the generosity and creativity demonstrated across the advisor community continues to inspire us.

 

As these contributions are put into action, we're already seeing how small acts of kindness can make a meaningful difference. From supporting local communities to helping those in need, these travel advisors are turning compassion into action.

 

As part of our Day of Service initiative during Travel Advisor Appreciation Month, we sat down with travel advisors to hear about the meaningful ways they're giving back. Watch the interview to learn more about some of the inspiring initiatives supported by our 2026 Kindness Contributions and the difference they're making in their communities.
