Best Odds Prizes
Posted on | December 13, 2009 | No Comments
Passports with Purpose is the travelbloggers annual fundrasier. Last year we built a school in Cambodia. This year we're building a village in India. Join us.
We're revising our site. Please be patient while we get everything updated.
As I write this post, construction of the Passport school is a sure thing, as is a school nurse. With an additional $7,500 we can provide a victory garden, gardener and cook who will provide a nutritious free meal each day to the children attending the school. We’ve been amazed by your outpouring of support, and by the generosity of the individuals and companies who provided so many wonderful prizes, and we hope you’ll help us meet this goal.
Odds of winning are better on some prizes than others. Sometimes it’s because a prize was entered into our system after the starting date. Other times the product isn’t as well known, and some real gems are hiding behind tricky names (you can check out each prize by clicking through to the blog who provided the prize). Go place entries for these now! And hey, since we’re talking about late entries – if you donated within the first few days, now is a good time to review the full list and see the prizes that were added after you made your donation.
Here are our “Best Odds” prizes (in no particular order)
