Passports with Purpose

I’m delighted to be a participant in Passports with Purpose, a travel bloggers’ fundraising event to raise money for a worthy cause.
We’re hosting a raffle to raise funds for Heifer International, a charity that aims to end poverty worldwide through supporting and encouraging self sustainability.
Tickets are $US10 and go on sale for a month from December 1, through FirstGiving. There are some great prizes lined up, all worth around $US100. For example, Pam at Nerd’s Eye View has lined up merino wool long underwear from Joneswares.
The nice folks at Lonely Planet have donated a prize on behalf of Roaming Tales so my contribution is a Lonely Planet travel guide of your choice and two copies of The Travel Book (it would make a great gift, though unfortunately not in time for Christmas). I’ll throw in free shipping anywhere in the world.
