For my family, many of our favorite holiday memories involve food: the cookies I baked with my mom and grandma, our family's special Italian dressing that I overindulged in each year, and our traditional Italian Christmas Eve dinner with grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. Lots of food, fun and family.
For many families, the holidays won't be about food. In fact, they might not have anything special at all. If you're been to Change Becomes Change before, you know that hunger in our communities is rising and affects many children each day. While it might seem like a really big problem to tackle, there are simple ways we can all help out.I'm pretty excited to tell you about the 12 Days of Sharing fund-raising campaign and virtual cookie swap hosted by In Jennie’s Kitchen that I'm participating in this year. Our virtual cookie jar will include cookie recipes from the amazing participating food bloggers. Each day, there's a different co-host who will help spread the word about how you can make a difference too. Change Becomes Change will co-host the virtual cookie jar on December 16th so make sure you're signed up to receive our updates to your e-mail box.
Did I forget to mention the prizes? If you make a donation by CLICKING HERE, you'll earn a ticket that will enter you for a chance to win one of many fantastic prizes. Yes – giving has its privileges!
