Please help me help Haiti!
20 Jan
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!
