Sold! In San Francisco the Giving Is Easy | Cancer Kick

SAN FRANCISCO, CA?(Marketwire -06/19/12)-
In the true spirit of hospitality, The Hotel Council of San Francisco is partnering with the Leukemia Lymphoma Society (LLS) to raise funds for vital research and support. One of the most exciting initiatives of the Million Dollar Mission campaign is an unequaled online auction featuring the City?s most acclaimed hotels, restaurants and attractions.

The online auction, which will officially ?open? on June 25, 2012, will not only feature an unsurpassed collection of one-of-a-kind experiential packages from America?s favorite city, but unique travel opportunities from across the globe. Proceeds generated from the online auction, which will be housed on the BiddingForGood site, will benefit The Leukemia Lymphoma Society of the Greater Bay Area.

Tom Klein, Million Dollar Mission Campaign Coach, boasts, ?The Million Dollar Mission?s online auction will showcase almost 100 fantastic travel experiences ? I am amazed at the caliber of experiences that the hoteliers of San Francisco have so generously donated ? the BiddingForGood online auction site will showcase indulgent San Francisco suite stays in addition to luxury packages from Hawaii, the Caribbean and Europe. Also available are once-in-a-lifetime African safaris and thrilling Asian excursions. I?m bidding that this campaign will be San Francisco?s most successful and exciting initiative of the summer.?

This city-wide crusade, which officially launches July 1, 2012, will bring together thousands of San Francisco hoteliers in a ?Million Dollar Mission.? The Million Dollar Mission campaign, poised to become one of the City?s most impressive single-industry supported fund-raising programs, will help provide financial, educational and social services for individuals and their families affected by blood cancer.
