Footprints Network
The Footprints Network
The Footprints Network is an online Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program that raises money from thousands of micro-donations collected as part of another e-commerce transaction. Founded by Worldnomads.com in 2005, it has since grown into a network of like-minded philanthropic travel companies who believe that travellers have a moral obligation to give something back to the communities in which they travel.

Famous quotes containing the words footprints and/or network:
“Leonid Ivanovich Shigaev is dead.... The suspension dots, customary in Russian obituaries, must represent the footprints of words that have departed on tiptoe, in reverent single file, leaving their tracks on the marble....”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“How have I been able to live so long outside Nature without identifying myself with it? Everything lives, moves, everything corresponds; the magnetic rays, emanating either from myself or from others, cross the limitless chain of created things unimpeded; it is a transparent network that covers the world, and its slender threads communicate themselves by degrees to the planets and stars. Captive now upon earth, I commune with the chorus of the stars who share in my joys and sorrows.”
—Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)
