Hosting a Social Impact experience

HENY
3 min readAug 19, 2022

A great way to connect people (both travellers and locals) to the mission of your nonprofit organisation is by hosting an HENY Social Impact experience. You can raise awareness to your cause and generate sustainable income — HENY waives our 20% service fee for social impact experiences, so all funds you raise go directly to achieving your mission.

Who’s eligible to host

Social impact hosts can be staff, board members, contractors, volunteers, or supporters of a local nonprofit — people who have real expertise in the work of the nonprofit and the consent of the organisation.

The organisation itself must be a registered NGO/nonprofit.

For either of these categories, please contact info@heny.app due to a separate verification process.

Who’s not eligible to host

  • Religious or belief organisations, except when the activities being sponsored are non-sectarian, such as soup kitchens or shelters, and are open to all faiths.
  • Organizations that discriminate or have exclusionary practices on the basis of religion, gender, sexual orientation, or other issues of diversity, even if this could be permitted by local laws.
  • Political or lobbying organisations, fraternities/sororities and certain advocacy and mutual benefit organisations.

How to start hosting

If you have only a personal HENY account, you’ll need to sign out and then create a new account for your organisation.

If you have an existing HENY account for your organisation, you can use that account to create your experience.
