WorldVentures Foundation: Empowering Children In South Africa

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
 
Consider this: a staggering 3.7 million children under the age of 18 are currently orphaned in South Africa due to HIV. For others, their families are unable to care for them financially. Couple that with malnutrition (currently at an all-time high in South Africa), and you have very critical issues that need to be brought to the forefront.
The WorldVentures Foundation™ (WVF), the philanthropic arm of WorldVentures, wanted to take an active role in helping those affected by these crises. So in February 2014, WVF collaborated with Botshabelo Community Development Trust for its first ever South African Service Day.
The event’s purpose was clear—to help educate and nourish children in South Africa. With that in mind, both organizations teamed up with Sizanani Children’s Home, an organization dedicated to developing, empowering and caring for people with disabilities, and Prettify Your Township, a project focusing on beautifying pre-schools in dilapidated conditions to encourage learning, to renovate a daycare building and a foster home, while developing a food garden in the community of Olievenhoutbosch, Gauteng to combat these issues and provide an effective solution.

In July, WorldVentures Foundation was back in South Africa for its second day of service, which was just as successful as the

Distributors Sue Momentis For Breach Of Contract

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
Day in and day out, Internet users sign various forms of agreements for a variety of reasons, from joining a dating site, to participating in an online auction, to uploading media to a storage locker. These agreements, sometimes known as browse-wrap or click-wrap agreements, are necessary to memorialize and expedite the use of a website pursuant to well-defined rules. More often than not, these agreements substitute for more “traditional” contracts, and they are thus construed as such when contested in court.
A fundamental question intrinsic to contracts is whether an enforceable agreement exists at all. A dispute over the enforceability of an online agreement, and the arbitration provision therein, arose recently in state court in Texas. See Momentis U.S. Corp. v. Weisfeld, No. 05-13-01250-CV (Tex. App. July 23, 2014).Momentis involved a dispute between a marketing company and two of its “independent representatives.”
To sell its products, Momentis U.S. Corp. (Momentis) contracted with third-party independent contractors called independent representatives (IRs). Bishop and Weisfeld (collectively, Plaintiffs) signed up to be IRs. In order to be accepted as such, prospective IRs must complete and sign Momentis’ IR agreement (the Agreement), Policies & Procedures, and submit an application fee. Once the prospective IR pays the application fee, Momentis
