I recently joined the Bloggers Unite group. They ask bloggers to pick something to blog about, only for one day and this is what I have chosen. The Brown Bag Project takes place on November 21, 2009.
This year on 11/21/09, BlogCatalog.com and HalfHourMeals.com are helping fight hunger. They are asking bloggers from around the world to join in. You can use your blog to promote this and to help make people aware of the hunger that is happening right before us. If you don't have a blog you can still help.
Here are a few ways that the Bloggers Unite suggested how we can help out.
1) Donate food or money to a local food bank.
2) Sponsor a food drive.
3) Volunteer at a local food bank or kitchen that helps to feed the hungry.
4) Deliver a meal to a hungry family.
5) Donate to a charity that fights to end hunger.
I'm telling you this early so that you will have time to plan. It could be as easy as donating to your church or asking your local school principal if they know a family who could use a little extra help this year. Thanks for reading! Enjoy your day~

ReplyDeleteThanks for spreading the word
Our elem. school is going to get a food drive going too. Little by little we can get the message out.
ReplyDeleteOur school is also doing a food drive. Our 8th grade WEB Leaders are organizing it and wanted to make sure the food went to a local food shelf. We were proud to see them care so much for their community!
ReplyDeleteKudos to you and your students for thinking of others and organizing a food drive!
