Dear Hostelling Friend,

Think back to your own personal hostelling experiences. Think about the people you met, toured around with, still keep in touch with. And how they have influenced who you would become, and the lives you have touched.

Now picture this happening 400,000 times a year, originating at HI-USA hostels, and the exponential effect it can have on the world.

This is the Butterfly Effect.

In this year’s annual report, you’ll learn about HI-USA’s accomplishments for the year, and you’ll also learn about the greater impact our large and small initiatives alike have made on individuals, communities, and the world. You’ll learn how one person can make a difference.

If you’ve ever stayed at a hostel, which I suspect you have, then you know just how life-changing one night can be. And we want to hear your personal Butterfly Effect. Visit hiusa.org/butterfly and tell your story – it just might resonate with someone you’ve never met in a different part of the world.

Thank you for being a supporter of HI-USA. You have already made a greater impact than you will ever know, but it doesn’t stop here. Just read on.

BenefiTs of UnificaTion in acTionWith a consolidated organization, HI-USA can strengthen its voice and impact and coordinate efforts across the network in ways that were not possible before. Our recent Sleep For Peace event exemplifies this.

September 21 is the United Nation’s International Day of Peace, and this year we honored it with our own signature event. For each guest who stayed at one of our hostels, HI-USA allocated one dollar towards our scholarship fund that helps underprivileged youth experience hostelling.

Using this event as a platform to raise awareness about our mission and nonprofit status, staff received in-depth training, and we executed an ambitious outreach plan. For the first time as a unified organization, the entire network rallied around one mission-driven event that made a buzz from coast to coast, while putting a unique spin on celebratory activities at each hostel.

It was at a special meeting of all HI-USA councils in June 2011 where a single vote changed everything: the vote to unify HI-USA. Instead of having 26 separate councils, HI-USA would merge into one consolidated organization, empowered by collective resources. This vote came at the end of a 6-year journey, filled with debate and discussion, but it was all theoretical until the moment the votes were in. And now here we are: 20 out of 26 councils have unified, with the rest on schedule to complete the process by the end of 2013.

The three-year process of unifying all 26 councils into a single national organization is in the final stretch, with tremendous strides made in the past year. At the present time, 20 councils have unified, formally bringing 21 hostels on board.

With this shift, HI-USA is taking on a new structure comprised of five regions: Northwest, Southwest, Central, Northeast, and Mid-Atlantic/Southeast. Leadership is now in place for all five regions. Once fully implemented, HI-USA will have staff and volunteers to promote hostelling across the country.

Unifying an Organization

One leaky faucet dripping three times per minute might not seem like a lot. But after a year, it can add up to more than 100 gallons, enough to fill two average sized bathtubs. And that’s just a little drip. Imagine the resources that can be saved when an audit of water, energy, air, and waste is performed, appliances are replaced, systems are re-orchestrated, and a team of staff is dedicated to eliminating excess consumption. Now multiply that by 12. That’s our past year in a nutshell.

GoinG The exTra Mile In addition to STEP certification, HI-Point Reyes earned Gold LEED certification for its newest building. HI-Boston has also applied for LEED certification and is awaiting its designation. Granted by the U.S. Green Building Council, LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is one of the most prestigious recognitions for environmental responsibility.

HI-Portland Hawthorne also earned an $11,500 grant from the City of Portland to perform sustainable upgrades.

This has been a big year for our sustainability efforts, with awards and recognitions rolling in:

Sustainability Quality Awards 2013 Santa Monica Chamber of Commerce HI-Santa Monica

Certifiably GreenAfter phasing in green compliance criteria over a three-year period, sustainability measures officially became part of HI-USA’s Hostel Quality Standards in 2012. With these new requirements, each hostel must meet environmental guidelines in order to pass their annual quality evaluation.

But 12 hostels wanted to do even more. Partnering with Sustainable Travel International (STI), a leader in providing sustainability solutions to the travel and tourism industry, HI-USA set out to certify a dozen hostels through STI’s Sustainable Tourism Education Program™ (STEP). This systematic approach to sustainability helps organizations assess and manage a wide range of sustainability components, ultimately leading to certification at the Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum level.

In the past year, three hostels have earned Gold, one has earned Silver, and eight have earned Bronze:

Gold • HI-Portland Hawthorne • HI-Portland Northwest • HI-San Diego, Point Loma

Silver • HI-San Diego, Downtown

Bronze • HI-Boston • HI-Houston, The Morty Rich Hostel • HI-Los Angeles, Santa Monica • HI-Monterey • HI-Pigeon Point Lighthouse • HI-Point Montara Lighthouse • HI-Point Reyes

Additionally, hostels across the network were honored with these other awards:

A longtime HI-USA supporter, Morty Rich bequeathed $232,500 in 1994 to help build a hostel in Houston. His dream was fulfilled with the opening of HI-Houston in 2011. The following year it was named the fifth highest rated hostel in Hostelling International’s worldwide network of more than 4,000 hostels and featured in their annual report. Now Morty Rich and the city of Houston are known in more than 90 countries, all because one individual thought his hometown in Texas should havea hostel.

Although HI-USA’s network of 54 hostels may be a small part of Hostelling International’s more than 4,000, we let the world know who we are in 2012. These hostels received special recognition from Hostelling International:

Building A Community & Culture of Volunteerism

It took the idea and determination of one volunteer, Nancy Clark, to lead an effort to replace all the beds at HI-Malabar Farm with Tempurpedic mattresses. With the help of staff and other volunteers, Nancy acquired the beds free of charge by seizing an opportunity with Good 360, an organization that helps nonprofits acquire corporate product donations. Everyone who passes through will now sleep a little sounder.

With the organizational shift to unification, HI-USA volunteers also shifted to a unified team of more than 850 supporters. Together, HI-USA volunteers served more than 20,000 hours in FY 2013!

Our volunteers are vital to our ability to provide educational programming, community outreach, and enriching activities at the hostels, so we reinvented our approach for recruiting and supporting this invaluable talent pool. Starting with the creation of a Volunteer Philosophy that was developed by field staff and leadership, HI-USA’s volunteer division also implemented the following over the past year:

• Volunteer resources for staff, including position descriptions, an orientation manual, and toolkits, to help manage relationships and involvement

• Quarterly HI-USA Volunteer Connection e-Newsletter, highlighting volunteer program updates, projects, and outstanding volunteers

• A new Volunteer Incentive Program, offering complimentary membership and overnights to volunteers who reach significant service-hour milestones

• Coordinated volunteer appreciation efforts nationwide, developed by a committee of staff and volunteers

Alderson Broaddus University – an 800-person college in the mountains of West Virginia – brought 16 students to HI-Washington DC to volunteer at the Salvation Army Harbor Light Foundation and experience hostelling for the first time through HI-USA’s Great Hostel Give Back. They may have never otherwise stepped foot into a hostel, yet literally overnight they became advocates for the hostelling movement.

The Great Hostel Give Back encourages volunteerism at worthy community causes across the country by offering a free night stay for each day groups of 10 or more provide at least two hours of service throughout January and February. Additionally, participants give a presentation or activity at the hostel to demonstrate what they accomplished. This program does more than support the communities surrounding the hostels; it promotes our mission by opening our doors to a wider span of hostellers.

“The hostel experience provided a reflection tool for the group to verbalize what they had done and what had been accomplished. It also provided a chance for students to meet people from different countries,” remarked Caitlin, a student from the University of Wisconsin-Stephens Point Alternative Spring Break group, who stayed at HI-Madison.

Spending just two hours per day volunteering, these participants nationwide provided service reaching thousands of people, developed new friendships amongst their group, and ignited their interest in seeing the world as a hosteller.

And with some earned publicity in Cosmopolitan magazine, 2013 was the best year yet for this program:

• 15 groups booked stays

• 8 hostels represented

• Nearly 250 participants

• More than 900 overnights

• Over 2,200 hours of community service

Twenty-four young adults from six different countries meet in a hostel for the first time. They come from different cultures and religions, with different political views. But they have one thing in common: they will spend the next two weeks together searching for common ground.

IOU Respect is a microcosm of what happens at hostels every day, intensified through structured conversation and activities to deepen cultural understanding. Having completed its 8th year in 2013, IOU Respect invites young adults, ages 18-23, from Egypt, France, Germany, Lebanon, Tunisia, and the United States to apply for a two-week workshop learning about one another’s cultures and ideology. Four representatives from each country are selected, with the host country rotating each year.

This past August, Germany was the host. In between visiting the Berlin Wall, the German Reichstag, and the cities of Dresden and Dessau, conversations ensued on topics of intercultural communication, identity and privilege, and religion. And these conversations continued over meals in the hostels where they stayed, exchanging different points of view while still being able to laugh and build new friendships.

“As these two transformative weeks came to an end, it was clear the experiences shared and the bonds created would remain alive long after each of the participants returned to their home countries,” remarked Jose Sanchez, the team leader for the Americans. “More importantly, it was a major stop in their individual and collective journeys to create a culture of peace around the world.”

Deepening the Hostelling Experience: IOU Respect

“After returning home from IOU Respect, I took a job with an international education organization and have been working there ever since. I got the job because I had recently been on IOU Respect. I think IOU was the most meaningful international experience I’ve had, and perhaps it’s actually responsible for my desire to pursue international education as a career.”

– Chelsea Smith, IOU Respect 2008 (Egypt)

AMERICAN YOUTH HOSTELS, INC. CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION Years Ended March 31

Here’s to You, Mr. and Mrs. RobinsonAs a PanAm employee in 1964, Ivy was entitled to spend a year traveling and still have a job upon her return. That year, when she married Leigh, that’s exactly what the couple did for their honeymoon. Starting out from San Francisco and traveling west around the globe, they aspired to live on a combined $10 a day. Naturally, hostelling became a way of life for them.

The hostels were filled to capacity when Ivy and Leigh Robinson arrived in London. The closest hostel with availability required an 18-mile bus ride, a 2-mile hitchhike, and a 1-mile trek across a dirt path through a dense forest. They finally landed at Tanners Hatch, a welcoming hostel that changed their lives in ways they could not have imagined.

“As soon as we saw it, we became admirers of the little thatched roof hostel, and we promptly became friends with the manager,” Leigh remembers. “We could have stayed there much longer than just a few days, but we had so much more to see. We needed to find a temporary home where we could leave our gear, receive mail, and relax.”

A friend of the hostel manager lived alone in a modest cottage but was delighted to share his space with Americans. With just one faucet running cold water and no electricity, this quaint space became home to the young couple for the next six months. Soon joined by another traveler they met on one of their flights, Ivy and Leigh built a friendship with their cottage roommates and the hostel manager that’s still strong nearly 50 years later.

Travel doesn’t always go according to plan. But it’s often those unexpected detours or encounters that change your life for the better. That’s what happened to the Robinsons, but the effects of their trip nearly 50 years ago now extend to hundreds of thousands of travelers from all over the world – and counting.

Upon returning home to Northern California, Leigh and Ivy became involved with the HI-USA Golden Gate Council to continue their connection to the hostelling community and inspire others to embark on a life-changing adventure similar to theirs. But their biggest opportunity to give back came in 2000.

Over the years, the Robinsons had a successful real estate business, and when they sold a property and netted $100,000, they knew exactly how to spend it. Until this point, the Bay Area hostels either rented space or were in a public-private partnership with state or national parks, but the Robinsons were adamant the next hostel must be owned by HI-USA.

Ultimately, a 1920s former hotel with an iconic charm opened up near the San Francisco Civic Center, right in the center of town. With the Robinsons’ blessing, the property was purchased and began its transformation into HI-San Francisco City Center. If you go there now, you’ll notice the in-hostel pub is called Ivy’s Place – a surprise tribute to the Robinsons’ generosity. Since its opening, the hostel has welcomed more than 400,000 travelers from all over the world.

And they want to do even more for hostelling – the Robinsons have included HI-USA in their estate plans. “We want the next generation to experience the same life-changing benefits of hostelling that we had. It’s an intangible gift that keeps on giving,” says Leigh.

Today you’ll find the Robinsons at local HI-USA meetings, continuing to effect positive change for the hostelling community. This may have not been what they set out to do when they began their honeymoon adventure, but that’s what the Butterfly Effect is all about. For the Robinsons and anyone who has stayed at HI-San Francisco City Center, that night in 1964 when all the beds in London were sold out is to thank.

If it wasn’t for HI-San Francisco City Center, Amber De Prince from Holland would never have had the opportunity to volunteer in 2012. The nine months she spent there bonding with other staff and travelers, getting guests as excited to explore San Francisco as she was, leaving lasting memories for hundreds of people, never would have happened. But luckily for her and everyone she touched, it did happen. And that’s why the Robinsons’ gift is truly one that keeps on giving.

Making a Life-Long Impact“I loved being encouraged to explore,” Mike Yoshioka recalls of his first experience with the Hostel Adventure Program (HAP), an initiative led by the HI-USA Golden Gate Council focused on introducing youth from the Bay Area to the great outdoors. “I felt a connection to the outdoors, as well as the other kids I was there with. It was a transformative experience.”

Now as an adult, Mike’s personal and professional life is an extension of this experience. After studying environmental and political theory, he became a Park Ranger for Sequoia National Park in Northern California and went on to organize the Redefining Wilderness Symposium. And soon he was back where it all began, hiking along coastal trails with HI-USA. Although this time he was a volunteer hike leader, guiding area youth in the same program he participated in more than a decade before. Shortly after that, he

became the on-call naturalist, followed by a fulltime Program Coordinator for HAP.

As a hosteller all over California, Mike sees the big- picture impact hostelling has on improving cultural understanding, and he’s equally inspired by its potential at the local level, where youth can learn just how accessible hostelling can be. He sees this local influence as ultimately encouraging more people to travel, explore, and find their own sense of adventure.

“Back when I was a kid in HAP, I remember hiking down a path that was not yet formed to get to some tide pools. It felt adventurous, and I just wanted more of that feeling.” It was that experience that shaped who Mike is today and the reason he gives back to HI-USA. It’s his way of saying thanks.

For Mike Yoshioka, it was a trip to the tide pools as a kid that changed everything for him and for hundreds of young people every year.

Hostelling has its own Butterfly Effect. It’s impossible to visit a hostel without making a lasting impression on your life or someone else’s, forever influencing what comes next. So what’s your Butterfly Effect that began at a hostel? More importantly, how are you going to change the course of someone else’s life for the better?

Visit www.hiusa.org/butterfly to see the transformative experiences that began at hostels and left a life-long impact for travelers nationwide, and add your own story. If you’d like to help ensure the next generation has the opportunity to begin their life-changing experience, please use the enclosed envelope to send us your gift or visit hiusa.org/donate.
