Giving Tree
Stephanie Abrams
I became involved with Libby Wright, a listener in AZ, who won a travel prize on my nationally syndicated radio show, "Travel WITH Stephanie Abrams!" on the Business Talk Radio Network. She is the Exec Director of The Giving Tree Outreach Program which rescues homeless kids from the streets of Tucson. They own and operate Grace Home where, at any one time, 4 to 19 homeless kids live. When she won the prize for herself, a stay in San Francisco, I also found out that the Tucson kids in their care had never stood on a beach and never seen an ocean or played in the waves. Bottom line: I organized a complimentary trip for 12 kids and 4 chaperones complete with 7 passenger vans provided by Thrifty Car Rental, 4 suites for every night of their travels from Tucson to LA and San Diego for 11 nights plus cash generated from an eBay auction of a stay in St. Lucia that I gave them and $1000 from the Morris Family Foundation (endows Sesame Street) to cover road expenses.
The kids went and it was monumental for them (Interview with them archived August 15/Hour 1/first guests. To hear it, go to my website at www.sabrams.com and click on For Sponsors to go to my page the network www.businesstalkradio.net Once on my page at the network site, click on SHOW ARCHIVE and choose August 15th Hour 1)..
In order to continue to help the Giving Tree to do its good works, I have endorsed a cruise on the Inaugural Caribbean voyage of Holland America's newest ship, The Westerdam. The ship sails for the first time to the Caribbean on December 5-December 12, 2004.r/t Fort Lauderdale. Holland America has provided a preferential rate which is more than 50% off the brochure rate and a portion of every cabin fee is donated to the Giving Tree.. We have the $1500 p/p/ inside cabin for only $659 p/p and that includes port charges and taxes plus HAL has a no-tipping policy. The most expensive Category A cabin sells for $2340p/p and we have it for $1019p/p.
I would like to invite you and your circle of friends to join us for this event of the gift that keeps giving! Please pass the word along! The itinerary and pictures of cabins/cabin layouts is attached. For more information and/or to reserve a cabin, please call: 1800-444-4166 or go to http://www.hnttravel.com/ (Holidays N Travel) who is handling the reservations for this trip.
Thank you for taking the time to consider participation.
