Today is launch day of Passports with Purpose Fundraiser. I would like to invite you all to take a small journey with me and found out about amazing prize that I have in store for you.

What is Passports of Purpose?

Passports of Purpose is a fundraiser event created from amazing travel bloggers Debbi @ Delicious Baby, Pam @ Nerd’s Eye View, Beth @ Wanderlust and Lipstick, and Michelle @ Wandermom. Last year, they with other travel bloggers around the blogospher and their readers had raised over $7,000 for the Heifer International organization.

This year we aim higher and we hope that our friends, readers, family and anyone who has come across our blogs will help us raise $13K for the AAfC to build schools in Cambodia

Who is AAfc?

AAfc or American Assistance for Cambodia is an independent nonprofit organization dedicated to improving opportunities for the youth and rural poor in Cambodia.

Founded in 1993 by American journalist Bernie Krisher, AAfC operates interlinked programs across Cambodia in the areas of education, health, rural development, and technology.

Why A School?

As a parent and a person who grew up in third world country, I have known first hand how important education is valued in these countries. Parents of all social status are working hard to send their children to school for better education. Education for us is the one main gift we could give to our children that will stay with them forever.

Living both here in America and in Thailand, I have known how lucky and privilege we are to have free education and easily accessible to various helps from the government. People in other part of the world are not so lucky.

So a program to help build a school in the rural area seems like a logical and perfect choice for us to get behind. School will give them better chance in life. A ticket or a way to get out of poverty. A way to better their chance in the future.

How it works?

Each participant blogger (that will be me), will provide prize or prizes at the prize of $75 or more and will blog about it (so scroll down, don’t skip this post). But you can find the complete list about the prizes at Passports With Purpose website.

For each $10 in donations that you make to AAfC, you will will be entered to win a prize (or prizes) of your choice. The fundraiser begins on November 30th and closes on December 21.

All proceeds go directly to AAfc.

The Prize – $100 Gift Certificate to Buckhead Life Restaurant Groups

I know when we travel there are pretty much 3 main things we think about. What to do? Where to sleep? and Where to eat?

So today, I have one of the three figure out for you.

The Buckhead Life Restaurants group is a group with several restaurants that will fit any type of foodies. Their restaurants range from Sushi, Steak to American Diner and many more.

Now, this is not the only prize you can win so go to Passports With Purpose page to check out more amazing prizes you can win.

How to Win

It’s easy! For each $10 you donate, you will be enter for a chance to win any prizes of your choosing. So you can donate $50 for 5 prizes or $100 for 10 entries to one prize that you want.

Remember that each $10 you donate will go directly to help build a school in Cambodia. It’s for a GREAT cause. It’s a season of giving so please please be generous.

Being born and raised in a thrid world country, I know first hand how important education is for any family regardless of your status. It’s the only thing that most parents want for their children. It’s a ticket to a better life. It’s a way to better their future. It’s in many ways a gift they could provide that will last a lifetime for their children.

When a group of amazing travel bloggers, Debbi @ Delicious Baby, Pam @ Nerd’s Eye View, Beth @ Wanderlust and Lipstick, Michelle @ Wandermom got together last year to start ‘Passport With Purpose‘ fundraiser program, I was too new to join and participate. I was too ignorant to get involved.

But this year, I will not let history repeat itself.

This year even I’m still not that organize to provide amazing prize that will wow you.

This year I might not have enough time to talk it up till the last day.

I hope and I pray that you, my lovely readers, will help me raise money for Passport with Purpose. Because this year, they will donate all proceed to build a school in Cambodia.
