This morning I received an email from Trip Advisor’s CEO, Steve Kaufer. They are donating $1 million dollars to 5 organizations. Very cool.
Dear TripAdvisor Member,
For years it’s been our mission to help travelers around the world plan and take great trips.
Now we want to help the places and people that we encounter when we travel. On November 12th, we’ll be donating $1 million to 5 great organizations that help these places and people.
Just as we believe in the power of the collective wisdom of our travelers, we believe in the power of your opinion.
Please vote – tell us where the $1 million donation should go.
Thank you,
Steve Kaufer
Founder & CEO

The five causes are
- Conservation International
- Doctors Without Borders
- National Geographic Society
- The Nature Conservancy
- Save The Children

At The Society we are not at the point where we can donate $1 million dollars; however, we are trying to do our share. We created www.VacationHomesForCharity.org to promote our efforts in making the donation of a 2nd home for a charity auction that much easier.
Just go to www.TheSociety.com and sign in to create your 2nd home profile. If you’re a charity, just sign in and create a charity profile.
Kind Regards,
Mike
