Project Feed Me….Week 1
It's "Chili" out here!!!
Good Morning!!! Today is day one of Project Feed Me! I couldn't be more excited! I am overwhelmed by your support and excitement!
Thank you for taking the time to give back to those in need!!
Now, without further ado…….
Recommended food item
Week 1: Two cans of chili
You can buy any brand, any size, from any store! I bought these two can's of Chili for $2.38 at my local grocery store. Together these two can's of chili weigh 2lb 6oz. Or (2.375 lbs).
Did you know that 1.28lbs of food is enough to feed one person one meal? With these two cans of Chili two people will be fed.
As of Today, 72 people have signed up to participate in Project feed Me. If all 72 members buy the minimum of just 2 cans of Chili, we will have provided 144 meals in one week. That means, that this week alone, we will give 48 people an entire days worth of food. WOW! Does that make your heart swell? Best thing is, this is just the beginning. It will only get bigger and better from here. Let's all do our part to get more people to participate and help kick this project into high gear!!
How many people will we feed together? Hundreds? Thousands? Millions? It is up to you.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of Project Feed Me. Millions of people are praying each day for someone to take away their sufferings. You are an answer to their prayers.
FYI: Each week I am going to do a Project Feed Me Fun Challenge, I'd love for you to participate!!!
Project Feed Me Fun
I thought it would be so fun to show others how many people all over the nation are taking part in Project Feed Me. This week, I challenge you to take a picture of yourself with your two cans of food at any place that represents your area. It can be a road sign, a map, a billboard, a street sign, it can be anything or place that shows where you are from. (Be creative!) The best sign I could find on short notice was the "South Weber Posse Grounds." And since I live in South Weber, I thought it would do just fine! Once you take your pictures, send them to me at nono2yoyo@gmail.com . I will then feature your pictures on my blog throughout the week. It will be so FUN to see all the different places and people across the country that are participating in project feed me. It will also give you something fun to post about on your own blog to keep your readers up to date with your project feed me efforts!
To tell you friends and family about the recommended food item send them the following link:
