A note on hunger & the Campout for Hunger

The Preston & Steve Morning Show will host their annual "Camp out for Hunger" from Monday November 26 through Friday November 30 at the MetroPlex in Plymouth Meeting. Each year, in partnership with PhilaAbundance this team works tirelessly to entertain hundreds of fans, while sleeping in RV's.  All in an effort to raise awareness of hunger and poverty in the United States.

Reducing hunger is a cause very dear to the Fit2You family.  All year we preach to our clients the virtue of clean eating with lean proteins, vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.  However, with this advice comes added expense.   Finding regular daily meals, let alone healthful  meals, is a challenge for millions of Americans, many of them children.   Knowing so many Americans go hungry each day, as I sit down to my 5th, 6th or 7th meal of the day is often too much to bear.  Knowing there are children who receive their only meal at school, while I find myself disposing of food that I "just couldn't finish" resonates profoundly.
 
In an effort to put some marginal dent in this menace, as we've done in the past, Fit2You hopes to act as "bundlers" for "Camp out for Hunger" and PhilaAbundance by receiving both your food and monetary donations.   You can contact me directly via email at ba@fit2youfitness.com to learn how to donate through us. Of course, it's even better if you can make it to the event yourself, make a donation, enjoy whatever it is the Preston & Steve Morning Show is doing at that time.

Also, we know times are tough.  But if you can, donate something good.  Go for the good stuff instead of the cheap stuff.  Go for the whole white tuna instead of the chunk light.  Go for the healthier cereal instead of the sugary garbage.  Imagine your shopping for yourself instead of someone else.  A few extra dollars can change someone's life...a few extra dollars.

I direct you all to the "Camp out for Hunger" website for more information on the event -- http://www.wmmr.com/events/campout-for-hunger/donate/

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!
