More MegaDO Wrap-Up: A $50K Check To Komen

ByEdward Pizzarello

I blogged earlier on the check presentations for oneworld MegaDO.

And now, we’ve got a short video featuring Suzanne Rubin from AAdvantage and Randy Petersen from Milepoint.com.

It’s the single biggest amount of money going to one charity as a result of MegaDO fundraising.  And, it also is a record for the most fundraising for an entire MegaDO.  The $70K we raised for charity over the course of that week is a record we hope to shatter with the next event.  It’s a tall order.

I’m profoundly thankful to all the people at AA that helped make the event a success, and equally thankful to all the MegaDOers that gave so generously.

And, after a crazy work and travel week, I’ve got some blogging to catch up on!

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
