Media Sponsor On May 9th, 2005,
companies throughout New York City will be joining in Skip Lunch Fight
Hunger, to support City Harvest's "Feed the Kids" 2005 campaign and help us
feed our city's most vulnerable population: children. The need is urgent!
Over half a million New York City children are hungry some of the time.

How does Skip Lunch Fight Hunger work? We're asking you to generate support among your colleagues and encourage them to donate their lunch money to City Harvest on May 9th. Prior to that date we'll supply you with brown paper lunch bags to distribute to your co-workers. They'll put the donation in the bag for you to collect at the end of the day. After May 9th, City Harvest will arrange to pick up the money you collected. Once the money is tallied, the 25 companies that raise the most money will be treated to a party! If you would like to sign up your company to participate, please fill out the form below. If you have further questions please contact Nicole Rottino at nrottino@cityharvest.org or 917.351.8746. Can't get a team together at your office to participate? You can still donate individually! Click here to help fight childhood hunger today.

How To Create A Successful Skip Lunch Fight
Hunger Program at Your Corporation
1. Sponsor lunch for employees so they’ll will be more likely to donate
their lunch money. 2. Send out an email reminder to employees on May
6th, the Friday before Skip Lunch Fight Hunger, urging them to bring in
their donations on Monday the 9th. 3. Set up tables inside or outside the
employee cafeteria for several days in advance to pass out Skip Lunch
brown paper bags. Or set up a table near the cafeteria that day where
employees can make their donations. 4. Place Skip Lunch bags at the cash
registers in your employee cafeteria, for employees to drop spare change
into. 5. Put a Skip Lunch announcement on your company intranet to
drive people to City Harvest’s website, www.cityharvest.org to learn more
about how their donations will help feed hungry New Yorkers.
