    this is a good site, and what would be even cooler is if i had proof that it worked...it seems too good to be true.
    Anyone know for sure?
    If you havent been there, go. NOW!
    Direct action is key- don't just sit at your computer and rant at leftists you disagree with slightly- get out there and DO IT. Organize. Change your life, and change the lives of those around you. The reason the waterheads are still in power is because we aren't being loud enough.

    It has some sister-sites worth playing clickies with, also. I don't know if they work or not, but it's worth giving it a go, in case it does.

    The Breast Cancer Site:
    http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/
    Allows one donation per day.

    The Rainforest Site:
    http://www.therainforestsite.com/
    Allows one donation per day.

    ... and a couple of others ...

    StopTheHunger.com
    http://www.stopthehunger.com/hunger/
    Allows one donation per day.

    FreeDonation.com
    http://www.freedonation.com/
    Allows up to twenty donations per day in each category.

    Another site worth looking at, for those of you who are into graphic/website design, etc., is a site that focuses on setting up Westerners with voluntary positions for organisations in Third World nations.

    NetAid.com
    http://app.netaid.org/

    Does this site work because of the sponsors? Every time the site gets visited the sponsors donate a certain amount of money or something?

    How else might it work?

    I guess I answered my own damn question:

    ABOUT US

    About The Hunger Site
    About America's Second Harvest
    About Mercy Corps
    About the owners of The Hunger Site


    About The Hunger Site
    www.thehungersite.com

    The Hunger Site is proud to introduce its new owners, Tim Kunin and Greg Hesterberg, co-owners of EcologyFund.com. Long-time friends and activists, they bought The Hunger Site in mid-August of 2001. Greg and Tim are dedicated to restoring and maintaining the site's position as a leader in online activism and a dynamic force in the fight to end world hunger.

    Originally launched in June 1999, The Hunger Site focuses the power of the Internet on a specific humanitarian need - the eradication of world hunger. On average over 220,000 individuals from around the world visit the site each day to click the "give free food" button and help feed the hungry. Founded in June 1999, The Hunger Site was the first online activism site on the Web. To date more that 101 million visitors have given more than 198 million cups of staple food.

    The staple food funded by The Hunger Site is paid for by site sponsors and is distributed to those in need by Mercy Corps and America's Second Harvest. Funds are split between these organizations and go to the aid of hungry people in over 74 countries, including those in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and North America.

    With over 3.5 million unique visitors each month, The Hunger Site has become one of the most trafficked sites on the Internet. Its grassroots popularity has been recognized with prestigious Web awards in the activism category -- the 2000 Cool Site of the Year Award and the People's Voice winner at the 2000 Webby Awards.
