A little goes a long way

     
     With the recent changes to the InCENTives To Trade, those of you that have viewed the ITT page may have noticed that 20% of the profits from each penny will be donated to Winnipeg Harvest.  With over 50% of the people that need Winnipeg Harvest being children, Pennies To A Dream has decided that this organization is one of the charities in Winnipeg that is in most need of donations.  They do amazing work for Winnipeg and handled about 11 Million pounds of food for the 2010 year, feeding over 55,000 people...29,000 of those being children.  I'm sure you've heard the statements "People Gotta Eat" and "No Child Should Go To Bed Hungry"....both are more true than most of us think and help is needed now!  If you've ever been extremely hungry, you've had a small taste of what a very large number of Winnipeg families face every day.....some days eating nothing at all.  This is where Winnipeg Harvest helps out, but at the same time, Winnipeg Harvest needs our help too!
     Donations of food and/or money can be donated through the Winnipeg Harvest website, and you can even apply to volunteer your time to help out this amazing organization.  There is an urgent need for food and we can all do our part to help.  Make a trade in The Penny Race, so that we can increase the values of each item.  The Bigger & Better the final items are at the end of the race, the more we can donate to this great non-profit organization. 
     Please take the time to visit their website and see more information about this great group.
