A Worthy Cause

by Kimberly Inlander

Jan 17, 2020

As we’ve done in the past, the FXExpress Publications, Inc. team is in the process of collecting donations for an online charity travel auction to be held in March. As we reach out to our clients and friends, I encourage you to also consider donating if you can. Perhaps the company you work for or own can donate an item or service, or maybe you can kindly make a financial contribution, or perhaps you’re waiting until March to bid fast and furiously on a number of travel items, including hotel stays, airfare and luggage.

Most important, however, is the cause! This year the auction will be hosted on our sister publication whereverfamily.com and powered by GiveSmart, an intuitive bidding platform that helps charities around the globe, and it will benefit KAI Foundation, an organization aimed at giving back to disadvantaged communities around the world. The foundation’s first project was to build a maternity ward in Mugarameno, a village in Africa. The former clinic, which served about 20,000, had limited electricity. The Claire Kartagener Maternity Ward debuted in 2016, and today a house is being constructed for a full-time doctor and volunteers. Nearly 200 healthy and happy babies have been born there since it opened on Dec. 10, 2016. Take a look at the gallery of babies born on the foundation’s website — there’s no way it won’t bring a huge smile to your face!

Check out whereverfamily.com throughout February and March for more on the auction, KAI Foundation and how you can help!

By-the-cabin Yachting Redefines the Cruise Experience

I wish this day could last forever!” my windswept 9-year-old exclaimed, his voice soaring over the Mediterranean. He gripped the helm of a Bali 4.6 sailing catamaran off the coast of Marseille, his sun- bleached hair whipping in the salty breeze. The scent of the sea mingled with the aroma of warm baguettes drifting from the Côte d’Azur shoreline. Our captain, a seasoned sailor, subtly adjusted course, letting my son feel the exhilarating pull of the wind against the sails. As the waves lapped against the hull, I realized this was no ordinary vacation — this was freedom, unfiltered.
