Blogtown Food Drive - So Great!

Posted by Sarah Mirk on Wed, Nov 26, 2008 at 4:03 PM

Check out this happy food train that's about to make its way to the Oregon Food Bank:

And just in time, too: thanks to the global economic collapse, etc., need for food has increased by 40 percent this year in some parts of the state. Yikes. Come by and drop your donation off by 4:30PM to receive a slew of great prizes and some really great karma.

Thanks so much to everyone who's donated - you guys are awesome and you made Patrick cry (just a little. No, seriously, it happened and it was pretty cute). Special HUGE thanks to readers Jesse and Monica, who came by earlier today with more food than they could haul up the stairs themselves and New Deal Vodka who dropped off two boxes for the food bank plus two bottles of vodka not for the food bank.

I was lazy and just donated $ on their website. Lazy people don't get prizes, but they can do good stuff too.
