TravelShark(TM) Launches People-Powered Hunt to Find Charity Partners for New Photo-Sharing App TravelSharkPix

Video campaign calls for users to submit their favorite non-profits to receive charitable donations from TravelSharkPix

SINGAPORE, Jan. 31, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --TravelShark announced today the launch of a worldwide search to identify three charities to receive donations from the company's new socially enabled photo-sharing application, TravelSharkPix. The three-week "TravelSharkPix Charity Hunt" allows users to suggest their favorite charity for consideration and rally popular support during an online vote to choose the winning organizations.

From now through February 10th, users can visit TravelSharkPix and suggest a charity. Starting on February 13th, global visitors will be able to vote for their favorite charities. The three selected charities will receive donations every time a user's photo is accepted on TravelSharkPix.

TravelSharkPix allows travelers to share their favorite trip photos with other users of the app. In addition, TravelShark will display the best SharkPix pictures across its global network of travel sites - including LasVegasHotels.com, SingaporeHotels.com, HotelLondon.com, VancouverHotels.com, and more - with attribution to the photographers. For every photo accepted by TravelSharkPix, the company will donate between $0.10 and $0.25 to the three charities selected in the hunt.

To share this unique opportunity with charities and their supporters around the world, TravelShark deployed its most recognizable representative - award-winning company mascot Mako Mark - to star in a widely distributed video campaign. In the video, the optimistic Mako Mark is foiled in his attempts to connect with the right charity for TravelSharkPix. Undaunted, he perseveres and devises a crowd-sourced plan asking users for suggestions of popular charities.

"We are excited to tap the wisdom of our global community of users to pick our new charity partners for SharkPix," said CEO Sue Heilbronner. "We love to see people sharing their travel photos and stories. TravelSharkPix gives them a perfect platform, and it's all for a good cause, or three."
