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)
“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
