Hi Everyone! Its time for Philly area Bumpers to get together and do some good deeds again! Last year I planned a GTG around the Preston and Steve Campout For Hunger food drive. It was a small turn out but imo successful for a first try. I'm doing the same thing again this year and hoping to make it even better. I am going beyond this board and asking several other Bump boards to join in.All of the food donations benefit Philabundance. Food banks are empty this year due to the bad economy. Lots of families will go without food this holiday season if we don't help out. There is a poll on my blogto help us choose a date that is best for all of us. This is a GTG that welcomes children.
After we drop off our donations we?ll have lunch at Ruby Tuesday?s, which is across from the Metroplex Shopping Center (the location of the food drive). If you can only make it to one or the other, we?d love to see you either way. I would only ask that, at the very least, you bring something small to donate.
Also, I would like to ask if anyone would be willing to volunteer to be a drop-off point in your area for those that would like to give but cant make it to the event. Maybe you can simply leave a box on your porch or meet them in a mutually agreeable public place. (please see FAQ on blog).
