Support Rock for Hunger
It’s hard to believe but Thanksgiving and Festivus are right around the corner. While the holidays are a time of celebration and full, bloated bellies for most they are a time of struggle for others. Way too many people don’t have food to put on the table year round, let alone the holidays. I am supporting Rock for Hunger again this month with a mini canned food drive to build up their reserves. My goal is to collect 200 cans of food this week to donate to this wonderful organization.
10 Cans for the hungry = 1 Burrito for You
I will be at the downtown Orlando Pancheros this Friday from noon until 1:30 collecting cans of non-perishable food items. Every person that brings me 10 cans or more gets a free burrito on me. The person who brings me the most cans will win a $75 Pancheros gift card courtesy of my good friends at Pancheros. Second place gets a $25 Pancheros gift card. If you don’t do so already make sure you follow Pancheros on Twitter, they are good peeps and I appreciate them helping me out.
Let’s recap : You get a burrito. We feed the hungry. Everybody wins! Please help spread the word to your Orlando friends! It’s the season to give back.’
UPDATE!
5 Cans = 1 Free Cocktail
Our tweeps over at Wall Street have stepped up to help support the cause. Can’t make it for the 
main event and contest at Pancheros? Join us at happy hour from 4-9pm at WaiTiki on Wall Street this Friday. Free burrito or free booze for a great cause. You can’t go wrong. Want to know what is happening in dowtown orlando? Follow @wallstplaza

10 Comments = 1 Burrito for the hungry
I realize that not all of you live in Orlando, but may like to help out. I have great news… you can contribute from anywhere in the world! For every 10 comments left on this blog post (by a unique person) I will buy a burrito gift card that will be donated to Rock for Hunger. They can use these cards to treat the hungry to a fantastic warm meal filled with cheesy goodness.

I cannot deny anyone cheesy goodness – great cause!
I didn’t get to hit up Pancheros while in Orlando. I should have but didn’t however I think that someone should get one so here is my comment.
Ted – thanks for all your help. I will be sure to spread the news and have a giant burrito party on Friday with you! For those reading this that live in Orlando, we will be having a homeless feeding on Thanksgiving morning. This is our 3rd year coming out on Thanksgiving in addition to every Monday from 7-8 for the last 3.5 years.
If anyone wants more information or wants to come on out, email me at greg@rockforhunger.org.
Thanks again Ted!
a burrito is better than no burrito. right on.
Too bad I don’t live in Orlando. I could have been the canned queen!
Feeding the hungry and myself at the same time? Yes, I am in. Drinks are on me for the person with the most can donations (if it’s me, though, Ashley’s buying).
Great cause, Ted!
Festivus for the rest of us!
@MLDina:
Yeeehaw! Drinks on Dina!

Wish I was in Orlando so I could bring down some can goods but since I am in MD here is my comment. Hopefully someone will enjoy some cheesy goodness cause burittos rock. Awesome cause!!!
The yummy goodness of Pancheros is still lingering on my tongue from IzeaFest 09. Yes, I wrote tongue, Ted. One comment from me, retweets coming up and a blog post too.
Greg Rollet does a wonderful job with Rock For Hunger. Thanks for helping him out with this much needed cause.
Oh great – now I’m drooling… LOVED Pancheros when @ericschechter treated me (and others) to a burrito during IZEAFest!
This is a very nice way to celebrate Thanksgiving Ted – hope you get tons of comments, tweets and posts.
Great to see somebody giving so much!
Not able to bring cans to help you out, so here is my comment. I’ll be sure to retweet this also!

[…] Murphy is supporting a local charity, Rock For Hunger for the holiday season. He’s collecting cans in Orlando this Friday. Not those kind of cans – cans of food. He’ll be at Pancheros […]
I wish I could bring cans but I cant, so here is a comment with a blog post and retweets to follow.
[…] Well now you have a chance to help fight hunger for free. Yes for free! All you have to do is visit Ted Murphy’s blog (founder of Izea) and comment. For every 10 comments he will donate 1 burrito from Pancheros in […]
This is awesome! Hope we feed lots of folks.
If I were in Orlando I would deliver cans with EvaBoo and BenSpark, but we’re in chilly MA, so here is my comment. You do great things, Ted. Thank you for being an inspiration!
This is an awesome promotion. Unfortunately I wont be in town on Friday because I am a big fan of Pancheros.
I will be part of Stepping Onward & Feet Fleet’s Ragnar team and we will be running 203.1 miles across Florida Friday & Saturday w/ 3 individuals from the Orlando Union Rescue MIssion to raise money & awareness for homelessness in Central Florida…but I will do everything I can to let people know about everything that you are doing, and how they can help.
