Let's donate hotel points to get rooms for homeless people!
I am working with a few churches and community groups here in Charleston SC to provide short-term rooms to those in need, such as Homeless Helpers Charleston and Charleston Uplift, both on Facebook. I bet there are many FTers who have some extra points in Choice, Wyndham, Radisson, IHG who would donate a night or 2 to them or to similar groups in their own communities. Hilton and Marriott points work nicely because they are transferable without fee, so FTers can donate small amounts of orphan points.
Who has ideas on how to make this work?
