is this

the homepage of the organisation that will assist your charity trek/
fundraising project ?
might be interesting to read a detailed first hand experience report
( how it all happened, how the organisations support was... and of course the story of the trip itself, which by itself can be a (side)motivation for people to support/donate : enabling someone to experience life/moving in pristine nature and participating at it trough journal/report/documented writing and or pictures/film )

Michael,
Will the results of your survey be made public? The organizations I
volunteer with have put the capability in place to accept donations
online. In fact, for one major fundraising event that is the preferred
approach. However, there are several contributers that do not want to
donate in that way. We respect that and make it easy for them as well.

So do you think this viewing through "western eyes" allowed a greater
identification which is lacking in many other cases such as long term

My union local donated $10,000. I believe it mostly depends on how
it's handled in the media and the intensity of the video images. Also,
it didn't hurt that Westerners were also victims, recounted their
experiences on tv, and videotaped the event on personal video cameras.
This enabled Americans to view the event through Western eyes, which
