Ambitious Deliciousness – Dont Eat Lazy.

If you recall, shortly after the Haiti earthquake, I shared that I’d donate all of my January ad revenue to help with the disaster relief and asked for your help. Now I finally have an update for you!

In the fast revolving world of news, we are no longer bombarded by devastating post-earthquake images. Even though we may forget, people are still in need, maybe even more now than ever before, as they continue to rebuild their lives.

Once again, I’d like to thank Marc of No Recipes for providing an opportunity to contribute to Haiti in a creative way through Blog Away Hunger. And thanks to your persistence, dear readers, I just donated $72.32 to World Food Program. If you so feel inclined, feel free to  contribute here.

Thank you so much for helping me help Haiti!

In June 2009, I went to Haiti with a great team to work with a few organizations there. We distributed food, visited a few schools, and spent time with a lot of children. It was a great experience! I fell in love with the Haitian people – they are warm, kind, and hospitable. In light of the recent earthquake (and another aftershock), I’ve found a meaningful way to contribute.

Food distribution.

Marc of No Recipes (norecipes.com – great recipes, beautiful photos!) began an effort called Blog Away Hunger(blogawayhunger.com). The funds are donated to World Food Program(wfp.org), which aims to end world hunger. How appropriate that food blogging can help end world hunger! As a result, I’ve agreed to donate my January ad revenue to this great cause to help Haiti.

Since the amount is determined by the number of page views on this site, I sincerely need your help!

Here’s how to help:

- Go to the recipe index pages (here, here and here) and read through older recipes.
- Send links to friends, encouraging them click on recipes. (Maybe it will inspire someone to try a recipe in the process!)
- Help spread the word! Tweet, post on Facebook, or send out an email to friends, encouraging them to click away!

I will update at the end of the month with the total amount raised. Thanks in advance for your help!
