When this year's Passports With Purpose fundraiser was launched, I was impressed with the initiative on a professional level, but it took time to make the connection on a personal level because I haven't yet visited Cambodia. That was soon overridden by the principles this initiative represents:
1. It supports childhood literacy and education. They are building a SCHOOL. Education is good for kids, necessary for progress, and critical if we hope to manage our planet wisely.
2. It supports the concept of a global community. Sure, I can volunteer down the street at my neighborhood school and act locally. But why not do both?
3. It's being organized by a team of A-listers: Debbie @deliciousbaby, Pam @nerdseyeview, Beth @wanderluster & Michelle @wandermom. By definition, this fundraiser will be a success.
4. It builds even more community within this super-cool, super-charged network of travel bloggers. I remember when I first started blogging a year ago, folks said I would eventually find my corner of the universe. I'm so glad I found this corner.
5. It's the right time. 'Tis the season to give.
