Last fall we had a Feed the Hungry Can Contest<\/a> and it was a great success!\u00a0 The winner<\/a> of the contest donated over 100 food items to be given to our local food pantry!\u00a0 Many food pantries are having to turn people away because there is a great need but not enough donations.\u00a0 People worry about where their next meal will come from and parents struggle to find food to feed their children.\u00a0 The non-perishable food items that we donate to food pantries help provide for people who would otherwise go hungry.<\/p>\n

We are once again having our canned food drive but this year it is going to be in the form of an auction.\u00a0 We’ll have more winners and even more food we can bring to feed the hungry!\u00a0 On September 25th we will be giving away five mini studio sessions set up with some adorable fall props!\u00a0 Starting today people can email us with their highest bid for how many non-perishable food items they would donate to win one of these mini sessions along with the disk of images from the session.\u00a0 The email should be sent to jasonangelini@aol.com<\/strong> with the subject line “Bid for Canned Food Drive<\/strong>.”\u00a0 This can be for any type of session including engagement, maternity, newborn, babies, kids, or anything else!\u00a0 However, you must place your bids per child<\/span> to include more than one child in a session.\u00a0 For example, a family with two kids who wants to have a family session would place a bid of 50 cans per child.\u00a0 They would then have to donate 100 cans if they win the auction.<\/p>\n

We will be taking bids until midnight on Saturday, September 18th.\u00a0 We have a minimum bid of 20 food items per child<\/span><\/strong>.\u00a0 The five bids with the highest total number of food items will win one of the sessions with the disk of images.\u00a0 These top bidders will be announced on September 19th.\u00a0 Time slots start at 11am and go until 4pm and winners will get to choose their time slot in the order of how many cans they have bid (most cans gets first choice and so on).\u00a0 Winners will have to bring the number of food items that they have bid to their session on the 25th.\u00a0 If you do not want to carry all those cans around, we will also accept a gift card to Publix with $1 for every food item you bid<\/span>.\u00a0 If you won making a bid of 100 cans, you can bring 100 cans or a gift card to Publix for $100 and we will do the shopping trip to buy the actual food.\u00a0 This is also an option for people who live out of town but want to win the free session as a gift to someone here.\u00a0 Make your bid and you can mail in a gift card if you win!\u00a0 Last year Jamie and Tristan were the winners and donated over 100 food items.\u00a0 If all 5 of our winners this year bid at least that much we are going to have some very happy people when they go to get their meals from the local food pantry!<\/p>\n

These mini sessions are completely free to the winners of the auction and they will even receive the disk of images.\u00a0 If any prints or other products are ordered from any of these sessions we will donate the profits to Feeding America<\/a>, the nation’s largest hunger relief charity.\u00a0 And of course if anyone is unable to make it on September 25th for a session but they still want to donate food items we’d be happy to include those when we bring everything we collect to the local food pantry.<\/p>\n

Send in your bids now!\u00a0 You’ll be helping a terrific cause while getting some awesome images as well!<\/p>\n
