INDEXA TO ENCOURGAE HUMANITARIAN AID ---> The INDEXA Officers and Board of
Directors are pleased to announce their intent to encourage DXpeditions to
provide humanitarian aid and services benefiting individuals and
communities they visit on DXpeditions. Additional funding is available when
a DXpedition submits a plan to provide humanitarian aid, the plan is
approved by INDEXA, and the plan is successfully completed and documented.
This incentive can be as much as an additional 15% added to the financial
support offered the DXpedition. See http://www.indexa.org/humanitarian.html
for detailed information about the process to follow.
