Press Release Summary: YouMe Support Foundation today announced the launch of a
unique, world first fund raising project. In the next few months a boutique resort,
in the South Pacific, will be given away to a lucky winner, along with a tax-free
income.

Press Release Body: YouMe Support Foundation partnering with winaresort.com will
give away Seachange Lodge, a boutique resort with a tax-free income, in Port Vila,
in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu.

YouMe Support Foundation provides non-repayable higher-education grants for
students, who are geographically and economically underprivileged.

Mr Harris Apos, the Banks Area Secretary said, "Unless we get outside help, our high
achieving students will never go to high school. They will never realize their
dreams of becoming a school teacher, doctor, mechanic, pilot, or nurse."

One exercise book is shared between three pupils and school rooms are often
non-existent. Pencils are broken into three. Fully qualified teachers are not always
available and many parents cannot read or write.

Rick and Wendy Tendys, proprietors of Seachange Lodge said, "They really
appreciative guests who, since 2004, have helped provide desperately needed school
supplies".

Recently, a cyclone struck the island community. The village chiefs appealed to the
government for help. They were told: "We will look into it, but there are no funds
in the budget for such natural disasters."

In July 2006, Vanuatu , made famous by A. Michener's Tales of the South Pacific, was
ranked as the world's Happiest Country on Earth, by the British New Economics
Foundation's (NEF), 'Happy Planet Index'. Yet, without outside assistance, these
communities are left to battle on their own.

Participants in the raffle will get an Early Bird Buyer opportunity to win $1000
cash and still enter the Super Draw for Seachange Lodge resort.
