Bringing Back a Tradition

You didn't hear this from me, but... (0.00 / 0)

I would first check out what percentage of  your donation to Montana Food Bank Notwork will actually get to the tables of the hungry in Montana.

Good Guess, Idiot (0.00 / 0)

Actually, in 2006, they distributed 9 million pounds of food to Montanans, with 87% of donations devoted to programs, rather than admin or fund raising, which is a remarkable number for a charity.

are you sure about that, Dear Heart? (0.00 / 0)

4&20 will love to help out Matt (0.00 / 0)

but I may seem some assistance putting up the donate link.

This is an excellent cause.

I rise pretty early in the morning to walk the pooch - and throughout the 'hood I can see that some of my neighbors are picked up for their morning breakfast meal.  I have one who is so ill that his meals are delivered.

There are many around us that live on such limited incomes that they can't afford food. 

Hopefully all of us Montana bloggers can come together to do this.
