I found a website that I'd like for you to add to your favorites list. It's
http://thehungersite.com/
By entering the website and then clicking onto the "Donate Food" box, the
various sponsors for the website donate money equal to a quarter cup of food.
You can only be counted once a day, so it does no good to click more than
once. The food goes
to The United Nations World Food Program. Currently it gets about 350,000
hits a day, including several from Vatican City (imagine the Pope at a
computer), which is a whole lot of quarter cups. They estimate that there are
800 million hungry
people in the world, so every little bit helps. (Doesn't that make you feel
guilty for complaining about the cafeteria food?)
The guy who runs the site came up with the idea and started it with just a few
hundred dollars. He takes no salary to manage it and had to quit his job
because it got so big. But his wife is a college professor, so they manage on
her salary.
Anyway, you might want to tell others to add it to their favorites and visit
the site daily. Like brushing your teeth - get into the habit and you just do
it automatically. Pretty soon, something doesn't feel right when you forget.
Ja ne ^_^
