Kraft Foods is helping me, help my local Food Bank *Giveaway* I need YOUR help! (Closed)

November 23, 2009 By Tanya 105 Comments

I have a contest that is going live, through Kraft, but this is one that truly touches me in so many ways! All throughout the year, we donate food that is in our pantry. Sure, we buy food for our family to eat, but if is still there, not expired or it might be about to expire, we will donate it. Often times, we will donate to our local community preschool as well as the local charities and food banks.

With this said, today, November 23rd, I am participating in a contest that I am fully supporting and I am asking for YOUR support to help me win. What is in it for ME? Well, a $1,000 donation will be made by Kraft Foods Global, Inc. to a local Feeding America food bank in my name, if I receive the most credits by the end of the Promotion Period.

  • When does this begin? November 23, 2009
  • When will this end? December 31, 2009 or once the one million meal goal has been met.
  • What can YOU do to help? Click on the link below. For each e-card that YOU send, I will get a credit. There are only12 bloggers participating, so our chances to give a $1,000 donation to my local Feeding America* food bank is very high!

Please PLEASE click and send an e-card. Each e-card sent is one step closer to feeding my local Food Bank. I truly want to win this for my community!

* Feeding America directly supports 205 member food banks. Kraft Foods is a long standing partner of Feeding America. Over the last 25 years, Kraft Foods has contributed $770 million in funding and food to support Feeding America and other hunger relief initiatives worldwide. By partnering with organizations, such as Feeding America, Kraft Foods provides much-needed food to hungry people throughout the United States. For more information about Feeding America, log on to www.feedingamerica.org. Meals are used for illustrative purposes only. Kraft Foods has set a goal of donating the monetary equivalent of 10 meals for each e-card sent, up to a cap of one million meals. Feeding America’s meal conversion is effective until June 30, 2010.

To help sweeten the pot, help guide you to help me help my community, I will run my own contest, here on Mommy Goggles. You can enter every day, multiple times. Just post a comment below letting me know you sent an e-card to someone. You can send one to ANYONE! Each e-card sent is a point for my local food bank, so send away!

In fact, I just helped coordinate a large food drive at my work — which I do annually to benefit the ACFB.) i’d love to win this card — and to DONATE it to a family we are sponsoring through the Women’s Resource Center to End Domestic Violence. should i win, i promise that this card would go to help an individual family who is in great need and who wants to live a violence-free life.

    talk about a win-win giveaway, right? :)
