I didn't, until I read about the San Francisco Food Bank's Hunger Challenge. Last year, 6 food bloggers and recipe developers tried to eat 3 meals on $3 per day during the 2008 San Francisco Food Bank's Hunger Challenge. You can take the Challenge for one day, or for the whole week. food bank hunger food stamp blogger

I first met Jen at BlogHer in Chicago last summer at the Global Women's panel. Georgia Popplewell from Global Voices asked people if they would consider donating their schwag for the Cambodian bloggers conference. I was going to blog it on BlogHer for my next deadline, but Jen raised what we she needed in 24 hours.
