Imagine this:\u00a0donate $10 and not only\u00a0can you feed a hungry child, you might\u00a0win a visit with Ferr\u00e1n Adri\u00e0 at his famed\u00a0Spanish restaurant elBulli’s test kitchen. Sound like a pipe dream? Well,\u00a0Chez Pim’s Menu for Hope <\/a>fundraising event makes it\u00a0possible.<\/p>\n

Triggered by 2002’s tsunami which devasted many parts of Southeast Asia–including my birthplace, Indonesia–Menu for Hope is now in its 4th year. In 2006, Menu for Hope raised US$60,925.12 to help the UN World Food Programme feed the hungry. This year, Menu for Hope is still supporting the UN WFP but\u00a0the funds\u00a0will be earmarked for the school lunch program in Lesotho, Africa, both nourishing kids\u00a0and helping them\u00a0stay in school so that they learn the skills to feed themselves in the future.\u00a0 What I totally love about the event is that for every $100<\/strong> donated to Menu for Hope, nearly $87<\/strong> goes directly to the school children and farmers in Lesotho. Read\u00a0more\u00a0here.<\/a><\/p>\n

All you have to do is donate at least $10\u00a0and you stand to win\u00a0an array of delectable culinary prizes.\u00a0Every $10 entitles you to\u00a0a virtual raffle ticket toward a prize of\u00a0your choice (click here<\/a> for the fabulous never-ending list).<\/p>\n

If you’ve ever wondered how you can even begin to make a difference in\u00a0eradicting world hunger,\u00a0here’s your chance,\u00a0even if it’s just one baby step at a time.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
