As Many Local and National Charity Events & Fundraisers as Possible!
As seen in recent times, one of the most amazing things about the tourism industry is its ability to band together to support and to use their many effective platforms to spread awareness for good causes.
Aside from being genuinely good causes, fundraiser events double as great networking and brand exposure opportunities. It pays to enquire about what merch or collateral is required for an event, by providing this, not only are you supporting the cause, but also promoting your brand, it’s a win/win.
