Dec. 20, 2006 - Joeann Fossland Visiting for Web Womens Giving Circle

We are happy to have a special guest in Las Vegas today, Joeann Fossland, a Master Certified Coach, a national speaker on the real estate circuit, and one of the country's Top 10 Real Estate Bloggers. Joeann is the founder of the Web Women Giving Circle and is on a whirlwind vitual blog tour to raise money for CARE for humanitarian relief.

What difference can just a small donation make?
Joeann Fossland : Here are some examples of how the donations can make a huge difference in the lives of others:

$50 can send an Afghan girl to school for a year
$125 can train a woman in Nepal to teach maternal and child health in her community
$600 can keep 10 girls in Sudan in school and teach them about AIDS prevention
$1,000 can provide a day's supply of emergency rations to 330 families
$9,000 can pay for construction of a reservoir pond for a village with 1,000 people

How can I help if I can't afford to contribute?
Joeann Fossland: While even a contribution as small as $10 can help, if that won't work for you, there are other ways you can make a difference. The premium packages are a business expense and contain valuable tools to help your business. For just $20, real estate agents get a business plan, a website, a great book on selling HUD homes and more. If there is no business budget either, sharing with others about the premium packages is a great help to us. Send an email to everyone in your office, your company, your MLS. Or a note to your friends asking them not to buy you more stuff this holiday season but to make a donation to CARE. Please ask them to use this link so the Giving Circle gets credit for the donation.

Additionally, we have a special affiliate relationship with Amazon so that a portion of each sale made through our web site is donated to CARE. Consumers and real estate agents are both able to make purchases there with the knowledge that a portion of the proceeds will be donated to CARE. When we see what is happening in the world we really can't afford NOT to help!
