I want to be more than a consuming force in this world. Getting out and taking action. So many problems in this world, pain and heart ache, things to make better, by simply pausing life and stopping problems— to help others with theirs.
“One snowflake is a pretty, insignificant thing… But, if you get enough snowflakes together… School’s closed.”
Let’s change WORLD HUNGER.
Here’s my idea: “Withoutlove Brown Bag Campaign”
Here’s how it will work:
1) Go to the grocery store, pick up a brown paper bag, and fill it with non-perishable foods. (Canned vegetables, canned fruit, rice, pasta, peanut butter in plastic jars, canned fruit juice, dried ceral, oatmeal, cookies, crackers, etc.)
2) Take a picture of what you collected and post it to your blog.
3) Email withoutloveblog [at] gmail.com / or twitter @withoutlove The link to your picture and how many cans you collected and I will reblog your picture. (so that we can keep a running tab, and keep everyone updated)
4) Deliver the food to the reputable food bank of your choice. (Just google food banks near you)
5) Encourage your friends to do the same.
6) go to the withoutlove twitter page or follow this blog to stay updated with how many cans of food get collected. (http://twitter.com/withoutlove)
Update: (1/11/09) To all of you who want to participate or just want to help spread the word, I think I am going to add a launch date (next week or tomorrow?) do if you want to follow withoutlove or via @withoutlove I will announce the start time.
Also, if you want to post the pictures of the food you collect on your sites email me and I will reblog!
