Power of 10: Give Kids The World $1,000,000 Challenge

We are a community of travelers who share a love of seeing the world and experiencing new people and cultures.  We are also committed to helping those in need who may not have the same opportunities as us, specifically: children with life threatening illnesses and their families.  When these children have a wish to visit Walt Disney World, or see Hogwarts Castle at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, or meet an astronaut at the Kennedy Space Center, organizations like the Make-A-Wish Foundation reach out to Give Kids The World to make that wish a reality.

Our goal is simple.  We’re looking for 10,000 people to ask 10 friends to donate $10 to Give Kids the World.  If we can accomplish that seemingly simple task, we will raise $1M to help this worthy organization in their mission to turn no child away.  We are looking to show the power of the internet in raising money for good causes.  Virtually every dollar raised through this initiative will go to Give Kids The World.  To donate and help share our passion for travel with those most in need please click here, and help us get one step closer to achieving our goal.
