don't eat it - donate it

Here we are trying to eat less while thousands of children are going hungry.

I plan to do this: once a week, skip one meal. Don't starve yourself - have an apple or something! But I plan to skip one meal and donate food to the local food pantry. Better yet, send the money to the food pantry - they can usually do more with the cash. They have set deals with vendors and can buy more food for the dollar than I can.

Anyone want to join me? Message me and tell me what you skipped and how you went about donating the balance to the food pantry. If everyone did this we could eradicate hunger in this country.

    why not one day a week do a 24 hour fast? and donate what you would have spent/eaten that day.
