Maximizing LinkedIn: Branding, Networking and Lead Generation for Travel Professionals

I’m proud to announce that the GBTA Bay Area Board of Directors has voted to move our February meeting to a virtual format to minimize expenses, allowing us to donate 100% of the registration fees to Baby2Baby. This incredible organization has established a specific fund to support children impacted by the recent LA fires, providing essentials like clothing, diapers, and other necessities during this difficult time.

Even if you can’t attend, we encourage you to register to contribute. Every dollar collected will go directly to Baby2Baby’s relief efforts.

Let’s unite as an association to support this meaningful cause. Your generosity will directly impact children in need.

Thank you for your support, and I hope to see you at the meeting or as a contributor to this important fund!

Warm regards,

Heather Parodi
Chapter President
