A Great Idea for A Great Cause
August 23, 2006
Over at Epicurious they are promoting Wine.Dine.Donate to raise money for America's Second Harvest.
I am a staunch supporter of the food bank system, which meets the needs of so many worthy people. There is no excuse for hunger in a nation as rich as ours.
This also can be applied to those of you not living in the United States. Hunger is a worldwide tragedy.

I totally agree......for people to go hungry in this day and age (like you said, especially in a nation as rich as ours) is disgraceful!
However, I have to say.....I have been 'out and about' and have offered a homeless person the odd occation to get a hot meal somewhere, rather than give them cash......and most of the time, they refuse to get a hot meal and demand the money instead and then get angry at me when I won't give them cash! (Hmmmmm.....somehow I think it is not food they are after!)
:)
Oh well.....

i read about this in the latest issue of bon appetit. we have decided to host a dinner party next month using this idea. i think each couple will donate $25 and we'll send it to a local food bank.
