🌎 Today & Tomorrow: Two Zoom Meetings for International Travelers


This issue of our newsletter brought to you by Daily Drop's Free Newsletter

Hello Reader,

We’re sending out this special edition of our newsletter (we’re not usually Monday people) because these two, timely events might be of interest to you, and they are free.

Today

On today’s episode of Monday Night Travel, Rick Steves is joined by Bread for the World president Eugene Cho. The event was meant to celebrate the $1.2 million raised by Rick Steves Europe late last year to fight hunger at home and abroad. Now, given the destruction of USAID, their conversation will address updates on the global effort to end hunger and fight extreme poverty around the world, on the impact of modern development aid, and on how USAID made America great by cultivating soft power.

Says Rick: “If you are an American citizen curious about all the hubbub around the destruction of USAID, this free and inspiring virtual event is for you. For more info see www.ricksteves.com/mnt, and I’ll see you there!”
