4th Annual Menu for Hope

For the fourth year in a row, food bloggers around the world are answering Pim's call to participate in a fundraising campaign that will benefit the United Nations' World Food Programme and more specifically, their school feeding program in Lesotho, which provides breakfast and lunch to 137,000 children across the country.

This fundraising works as a virtual raffle. Every US$10 you donate will buy you a raffle ticket to win one of the prizes contributed by participating bloggers. The results of the raffle drawings will be announced on January 9; we bloggers will send our prizes to the winners, and all funds raised will go to the WFP.

The prize I am donating is a copy of Clotilde's Edible Adventures in Paris, my upcoming book on Paris restaurants and shops (read more about it here), inscribed in your name, or that of the person of your choice. This prize goes by the moniker EU07, so be sure to include this reference with your donation if it is the one you'd like to bid on: seven is my lucky number, and it could be yours, too! (Please note that the book will be released on April 22, so it will be sent to the winner at that time.)

So: check Pim's blog for the Menu for Hope FAQ and the master list of prizes, visit our European host Fanny for a list of the prizes contributed by EU bloggers, and, if you deem our cause worthy and our prizes spine-tingling, head over to the donation page! Thank you in advance for your generous participation.
