I originally came across this fabulous idea when browsing Just a Small Town Girl's blog (and this idea originally came from Kera at Nugget on a Budget).
Cans for Comments!
Such a fabulously simple idea to give back as a blogger!
Here is how it works...
(And I missed the week that most other bloggers were doing this- December 7-15th, so I am doing my own little version of it. ;) )
I will run my Cans for Comments blogger campaign for the next 3 days.
For every 3 TWO comments I get on this post, I will donate 1 Can of Food to a local food pantry.
For each NEW GFC follow, Bloglovin follow, Pinterest follow, & Facebook Like, I will donate 1 Can of Food. (This is SUPER easy to do! See that Let's Connect do-hicky over there are my sidebar?>>> Yep, just click and follow from there!)
And just to up the number of comments and for your new follows and likes to count, leave me a comment for every new way you choose to follow me from the options above. (For example, if you just started following me on Pinterest, leave a comment on this post telling me you did so. It is like your Pinterest follow is counting extra- 1 can plus 1/3 of another can! See? :) )
**In light of Friday's tragic losses, I am also going to donate $1 for every3 TWO comments on this post and tomorrow's Blogger Day of Silence post to Newton Youth and Family Services.
