Great American Bake Sale Continues to Makes its Way On the Web

I still remain fascinated by the power of speed on the Internet. We're now 23 days into its campaign, and more than one thousand people have signed up to host bake sales for Share Our Strength. Thanks to foodie bloggers, mommy bloggers, as well as other bloggers, the word about Great American Bake Sale is spreading. There could be many reasons for this success--much of it can be attributed to the time we live in, but I think it's something else--the spirit of hope and the belief that it can just take one person to help another.

This hope and belief inspired Great American Bake Sale's campaign theme this year--"you or I" can help end childhood hunger by hosting a bake sale, and that every little bit counts. This hope has taken the web by storm, inspiring bloggers to help in ways that you could not imagine. One blogger is so inspired that she partnered with Bake Sale on an e-recipe book in conjunction with her virtual bake sale. Submissions will be accepted until April 5 with the book being released on April 13. For more information check out Cooking During Stolen Moments.

So, as you can see, Great American Bake Sale is inspiring Americans across the country to help. Why? Because anyone can help by "sharing their own strengths."
