Pack for a Purpose

[LL_Moderator_ks]

Dear Community,

LL has just launched an inspiring new partnership with Pack for a Purpose®, an organization connecting travelers with communities in need in the places they visit, one vacation at a time.

Did you know that for just 5 pounds (2.27 kilos), you can pack:
•400 Pencils
•5 deflated soccer balls with an inflation device
•A stethoscope, a blood pressure cuff and 500 band-aids

How can you make a difference? Look for the Pack for a Purpose® logo on participating Luxury Link properties in your desired destination. View all the details here:

What an awesome idea! I try to bring items that I can give to people when I travel, so this is really fantastic. Thanks for doing this.

SUPER! We have done this in Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua. Great to see it on LL!

Great idea. Finally someone put more organization power behind the idea. We have done that back in the late 50ies when we traveled to former Yugoslavia, when it was still under communist rulers. At the time we packed Pic Ball Point Pens, which were all the rage, to hand out to kids and young adults. We also handed them out in exchange for directions.

One of my Nicaragua packages participates in this and I have already been in contact with them - we will be bringing school supplies with us when we go
