Passports with Purpose Update

When I get up in the morning, the first thing I check is the First Giving page for Passports with Purpose. As of a few days ago, we’ve met – and surpassed – our fundraising goal. Because of your generosity – on all sides, from those that donated prizes to those that bought tickets, we’ve now got over 5000 dollars to give to Heifer International.

But check it out. In spite of the fact that we’ve raised 5k, there are still a bunch of prizes that are not quite up for grabs. I ain’t saying you’ll automatically win one of these if you select them. I am saying that odds are very, very much in your favor. Click the links to learn more about the prize.

  • C03 Merino Wool Long Underwear from Jones Wear ($120) from Nerds Eye View
  • C06 Clothing items (one outfit) by Earth Creations from Travel With Purpose
  • C07 His and Her Shirts by ExOfficio from Wanderlust and Lipstick
  • K05 $100 Gift Certificate with Babies Travel Lite (sponsored by Babies Travel Lite), signed copy of Travels With Baby($122) from Travels With Baby

What do you need to do to score one (or more) of these fabulous prizes? Make note of the code and head over to the First Giving page and follow the instructions.

If you’ve already made your raffle donation, you can still help out. It’s not too late to get a Passports with Purpose badge for your site, to write a blog post about the raffle, or to help with publicity in any way you can.

Got questions? We’re still snowed in at NEV HQ, so odds are good I’m sitting right here at the computer when you hit send. I’ll get back to you, pronto.

And as always, thanks.
