Well Weight Watchers is doing something about it on September 14th, 2010 by running social networking event for it's Lose For Good® campaign to benefit the organizations Share Our Strength and Action Against Hunger. The Event will be called Lose-A-Palooza!
Lose-A-Palooza is a one-day social media event created to encourage people to participate in the Lose For Good campaign to benefit Share Our Strength and Action Against Hunger. There is a difference between Lose For Good and Lose-A-Palooza. Lose For Good is a 7-week campaign, Lose-A-Palooza, on the other hand, is a ONE-day event as part of the Lose For Good campaign. The event runs one day only – September 14th – and its objective is to drive as much social media awareness as possible for Lose For Good. Every time Lose For Good is mentioned using an approved method on 9/14, Weight Watchers will track the mention and donate a dollar – up to $60,000. |
As part of the Lose For Good campaign, Weight Watchers will donate $1, up to a maximum of $60,000, to Share Our Strength and Action Against Hunger for each approved mention, acknowledgment, or action related to “Lose For Good” made on September 14th, 2010 through blogs, Twitter, Facebook and check-in via foursquare for Lose-A-Palooza.

I know I will be participating on September 14th! I think we should all be ashamed of ourselves if we don't do anything to end hunger in America and all over the world. In a time where we need programs like Weight Watchers to help us lose weight because we over eat and have so much food to eat I believe NO ONE should be going hungry in 2010!
Please help me "Spread the word" and let people know how they can join you in the fight against hunger on 9/14/2010!
