Take the $5 Challenge

September 9, 2011

Go here to Take the $5 Challenge!

THE CHALLENGE: This September 17, you’re invited to take back the ‘value meal’ by getting together with family, friends and neighbors for a slow food meal that costs no more than $5 per person. Cook a meal with family and friends, have a potluck, or find a local event.

WHY: Because slow food shouldn’t have to cost more than fast food. If you know how to cook, then teach others. If you want to learn, this is your chance. Together, we’re sending a message to our nation’s leaders that too many people live in communities where it’s harder to buy fruit than Froot Loops. Everybody should be able to eat fresh, healthy food every day.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED: Sign up for the challenge! You can cook a meal with friends and family, find a local event, or host your own event. When you sign up, we’ll send you $5 cooking tips.

From SlowFood USA – Last chance for your 2010 tax return

December 30, 2010

Making a tax-deductible donation to Slow Food USA before December 31st will make sure this work can continue, and will increase your 2010 tax refund:

This year has seen countless events around the country, including hundreds on the same day for our ‘Dig In’ day of action, new chapters opening every single month, and great victories on child nutrition and food safety.

Over 170,000 people took action on our ‘Time for Lunch’ campaign, we’ve grown to over 200,000 supporters, and we now have over 220 chapters across the country doing amazing work in their local communities.

This wouldn’t be possible without your generous support. Next year, we plan to continue our growth locally and our impact nationally, working together to build a food system that is good, clean and fair for all.

By donating today, you can support the work of Slow Food USA and increase your tax deduction for 2010.

Just click this link to contribute today, while your deduction will still count for the 2010 tax year:
