12/17: Local Blog Donating $1 to Charity for Each Visitor

December 17th, 2008

Here’s a really easy way to help the Oregon Food Bank: Visit Jack Bog’s blog today (December 17). That’s it. Just visit. For every person who visits today, $1 will be donated to OFB.

From Jack’s blog:

Thanks for coming to this blog on our sixth annual Buck-a-Hit Day. Just by visiting here today, you have caused the bojack.org Gift-Giving Team to give $1 to the Oregon Food Bank. One of our readers, Mr. Fearless, has pledged to keep donating a buck to the OFB for every visit to this blog today — through 5,000 unique visits.

If you like, you can do more.

You can write a comment. The person who writes the best comment will get to decide which charity should get $250.

You can donate. Jack is collecting donations for five local charities, and each dollar donated (up to $2,100 total) will be matched by special friends of the blog.

But you don’t need to donate or even leave a comment. You can help by just visiting: link.
