Chance to send free meals to the homeless
While watching a movie on TV I saw this. It was sponsored by Kraft and if you go to the site whose address I list below, and send a free ecard to someone they will send the equivalent of 10 free meals to the homeless. I tried it and it works fine.

1. Cool! My one e-mail has wished my other e-mail happy holidays!
And I might try some of those recipes someday, too...

3. Uhm, WHERE exactly is Kraft going to send the meals (since homeless people don't HAVE A HOME)!
When I click on the link all I see/hear is Christmas-y kinda music, but I can't click on anything that explains what Kraft is actually "doing".

I'm all for feeding the hungry and homeless. I'm very skeptical about this though....

I would love to be wrong, though.

5. Christmasy music - that also says on the page that they're donating it to "Feeding America" charity.

7. if it's a corporation doing it, they're benefiting. they don't need you to send a damn e-card
to someone to give food to the homeless. they've got plenty of cash -- & food.

they're probably collecting & collating the e-mails or something.
