Dear Travel Friends,
HURRICANE HARVEY AID
When considering donating to any emergency fund, the most important questions are what percentage of donations actually go toward the emergency, and is the fund legitimate? We encourage pledges for aid to victims of the devastating
Hurricane Harvey by giving to the 100% efficiency rated charity Direct Relief . Their mission is to: "Improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty and emergencies".
MEXICO TRAVEL WARNINGS
Reports have surfaced about guest consumption of tainted alcohol at some all-inclusive resorts, kidnapping, carjacking, and robbery in various Mexican states.
Vacationing anywhere in the world has potential risks and one should reference the US State Department Worldwide Alerts for the latest reports. Be on the alert, heed warnings and stay away from certain specified areas.
