The wonderful recipe and collaborative blogging website www.goodbite.com has teamed up with Quaker Oats to create a fun and inventive new contest that will not only show you creative ways to spice up your oatmeal - but also donate a whopping $10,000 to a wonderful charity.  Twelve of the nation's top bloggers have been selected to share their favorite food memories.  Those memories become the inspiration for Good Bite Host and celebrity chef, David Lawrence to create unique oatmeal toppings.

Over the past several weeks, a new round of videos will be posted where you can vote for your favorite.  From each round, semi-finalists have be selected.  At the end of eight weeks, the bloggers video with the most votes wins!  The prize . .  $10,000 will be donated blogger's favorite charity! 

I'm very happy to announce that I was chosen as one of the 12 bloggers! I selected the wonderful charity "Food For The Poor" as the recipient of the $10,000 if my topping wins.  As a "foodie" myself, I can't shutter to think of all the people in this country and around the world who go hungry.  Now celebrating its 27th year of operation, Food For The Poor (FFP) is an interdenominational Christian relief and development organization working primarily in 17 countries in the Caribbean, Latin America, and the United States, to assist children and the poorest of the poor.  As of TODAY, my video is up!  Please check it out and vote "thumbs up" for my topping and Food For the Poor!

Food For The Poor: By working together with pastors, missionaries and churches in these regions, they ensure that the aid is reaching those who need it most.  They provide whatever is needed on an emergency level, but they also focus on providing good housing and education that gives these families the tools to strive for a much better way of life.  Forbes Magazine reported that Food for the Poor has the most impressive financial commitment ratio compared to all other large charities . . . 97% of what is donated is actually used towards the charitable expenses instead of administrative costs and salaries.
