SalaamGarage: Imagine What You Can Do
summary
Leads multi-day trips that pair content creators with vetted NGOs, pre-arranging translators, logistics and identified subjects so amateurs produce publishable material that raises money and awareness. Participants shoot photos, post a Flickr stream, write blogs and tweet, add a PayPal button to collect donations, and mount local photo shows. Pilots run since 2007 to India and Kenya, claim measurable funds and traffic uplift for partner NGOs and repeat bookings for return trips.
