I just heard on the news last night that November is one of the busiest months for food banks in Iowa between the holidays, tighter end-of-the-year budgets and colder temperatures. We all can help hungry families in need by simply donating to our local food pantries and organizations like Feeding America. I'm happy to accept the #CanHunger challenge from Amy at Modern Rural Living to sign a can of food, donate it and challenge three friends to do the same: Katy from Learning As I Go, Katie from On the Banks of Squaw Creek and Katie from the Pinke Post!
A reminder to everyone that throughout the month of November my Comments for the Cause is going towards the #NorthIowaBloggers food drive. So help today by commenting how you are going to help hungry families this holiday season!
I just donate money. It's easy and they can buy so much more with the cash. I was a single mom for quite a while, I know how hard it can be to keep food on the table. And my stitching group decided a few years ago to just donate the cash from making an ornament to share, and we gift it to the food bank. They've never told us NO! Have a great Thanksgiving! Hug your kids, put your feet up and rest.
ReplyDeleteHappy to take on the challenge! Thanks for including me.
ReplyDeleteI just read this news and I must say that the idea of helping families in need is extremely important, especially during the holidays and cold weather, when the need for support increases. Campaigns like #CanHunger are a simple and effective way to get friends and neighbors involved in charity by giving small but very valuable help. Such initiatives show how small actions can have a big impact and motivate people to be more attentive to the problems around them. In addition, in today's world, digital tools such as https://octobrowser.net/ , which allow you to securely and conveniently manage online accounts and organize online fundraising or campaigns. This simplifies communication and allows you to reach a larger audience, making charitable initiatives more scalable and controllable.
