Euro Travel Distribution Summit: Philanthropic Travelers

Exquisite Safaris Philanthropic Travel partner Jane Kaye Bailey's Butterfly Tree Project was the 2008 featured charity at the 2008 European Travel Distribution Summit held in London May 2008.
The 2008 Eye for Travel European Travel Distribution Summit is the world's biggest conference for travel marketing, pricing and technology executives.
In a keynote session on the benefits of Philanthropic Travel:
"The travel industry has a huge capacity to raise funds for NGO's and charities especially through the internet. Tour operators need to make their tourists aware of the poverty surrounding their luxury resorts, in the developing countries they are visiting. Hoteliers must provide clean water, health and education for local communities as well as becoming 'eco friendly'. It is essential that this industry awakens to it's responsibilities, using their marketing skills to promote awareness and help to reduce world poverty." -Jane Kaye Bailey Founder Butterfly Tree Project
The Butterfly Tree assists rural communities decimated by the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Zambia, providing improved education, feeding programs, safe water, health care and an orphan sponsorship program. 100% of your donation goes to the project.
