The last page of this presentation gives two corporate guys who don't sell. Please PM me for details.

In a nutshell, the way this can work is, you contact local causes that we care about. Environmental, politics, schools, anyone who needs funds. YTB offers a turn key solution to get these organizations up and running with a passive fund-raising event.

I worked in fund-raising, and still dabble. It can cost thousands to raise funds. This is a one time fee, and every time a supporter travels, they can make a passive donation!

Instead of paying a travel agent or hotel chain, the commissions go to the organization. This is so win/win. Orbitz has enough funds, don't you think? One of the big online travel chains sold for over a Trillion Dollars.

Travel is the fastest growing industry in America. At least we still have one thing right. 85% book travel online.

I'm really excited about this and hope some of you want to work together to fund our organizations and put a little cash in our own pockets.

edit: ps . I hope to get Skinner, et al interested in this too. It would mean revenue for DU, ongoing. Wouldn't DUers love to book travel at a DU logo site? uh huh, no brainer.
