Menu For Hope
I read over at Bleeding Espresso about a wonderful fundraiser called Menu For Hope. This fundraiser is a raffle, with the money going to support a school lunch program in Lesotho, a tiny country completely surrounded by South Africa. What can you win? Looks like there is a lot of stuff out there to win, and a lot of it looks pretty great. I’ll donate my $10, and regardless of whether I win or not, I hope the kids in Lesotho receive nourishment and hope from this program.
The money is donated to the U.N. World Food Programme, via a third party donation organization named first giving. I came upon this fundraiser late in the game, and it ends on December 24th. They’re hoping to match the $100K they raised last year, so if you find that you have $10 to spare, and would like to truly help some wonderful kids get both the nutrition and the schooling they need, hop on over and do some good. Who knows, you might even win something in the process.

Woohoo for spreading the word!

I consider myself fairly literate when it comes to geography, but I have to admit that until now, I didn’t know Lesotho existed!
