SUMMARY:Giving Tuesday
DESCRIPTION:What is #GivingTuesday?\nWe have a day for giving thanks. We have two shopping days for getting deals. Now\, we have #GivingTuesday\, a day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday\, December 2\, 2014\, Operation Food Search and FEAST makes this global day LOCAL. We have a goal to raise $10\,000 in one day to support our signature nutrition education program\, Cooking Matters®. \nWhy Cooking Matters?\nFeeding 190\,000 people per month in the bi-state region is just a fraction of what we do at Operation Food Search. Cooking Matters® empowers families with skills\, knowledge\, and confidence they need to prepare delicious\, healthy and affordable meals. This knowledge can mean the difference between feeding families just for one night\, and making sure they never again have to worry about when their next meal will come. \nAs you make wonderful memories around the dinner table surrounded by family and friends\, you can enjoy this special season knowing you have given a precious gift of hope and inspiration to others. \nGive the Gift of Connecting Families with the Joy of Cooking!\n  \n \n
