Trips For Cancer

When good people do good things, we have to talk about it! Elite Travel International, a client of ours, just launched the 2nd annual Trips for Cancer campaign. Stacy Small, owner of Elite Travel International, is offering luxury travelers worldwide the opportunity to once again “make a donation, take a vacation” through her unique luxury travel online auction.

Beginning on March 1, 2007 you can bid on these great trips for cancer! The best part about this auction is that it hits close to home. Stacy's father, Jerry, recently lost his battle with cancer and her mother, Sheila, is a two-time breast cancer survivor. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Evelyn Lauder’s Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Full descriptions and photos of the trips up for bid will be posted in February, and the auction will run for approximately four weeks.

Melissa and I want to say how honored we are to be involved in this initiative and we hope that you will tell as many people about Trips for Cancer as you can. Link to it, talk about it, write about it. As someone who has had two close family members struck with cancer within the last two years, I have seen first hand how badly we need a cure. Please help this great cause out by spreading the word!
