Donate Food For Free. (Really)

[Wycco]

I know I posted about this site a long time ago back when Shamu first started...

But I still believe strongly in this charity:

www.thehungersite.com

You can donate free food- simply by clicking on a button.

The button takes you to a page full of mini-banner ads- you don't need to read or follow any of the ads if you don't want to- the contribution will be made.

You can "donate" by clicking once a day... totally free to you- all it costs is 5 seconds of your time.

Not sure what I mean... check it out:

www.thehungersite.com

it's really simple!

How is the food distributed?
The Hunger Site's two beneficiary partners distribute the food around the world.

Mercy Corps alleviates suffering, poverty and oppression in more than 25 countries including Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

www.secondharvest.org/
America's Second Harvest is the largest food distribution organization in the United States and serves more than 26 million people.

Mercy Corps gets 70% of the food donated.
America's Second Harvest gets 30% of the food donated.



The hunger site is legit. I've seen it mentioned on the news in the past- and I personally have known of it for about 3 years now... If it was not legit it would have been removed by now.

If someone doubts me- try Snopes, the most famous website for sniffing out hoaxs online.
