A reminder about the fourth annual Menu for Hope, a charitable raffle that raises money for the UN World Food Program (WFP) conceived by Pim Techamuanvivit, of Chez Pim blog. Menu for Hope IV runs from December 10-21, 2007.

This year’s fundraising target is US$100,000. A very achievable one considering the fundraiser raised over $60,000 last year. There are some great prizes donated by food bloggers from around the world-- everything from jars of homemade preserves to some beautiful cookbooks, donated by yours truly. I’ve put together 13 cookbooks (pictured here) by some of your favourite Food Network Canada chefs (note: apple in the background is not included since I had it for lunch).

They are:

Due to shipping limitation my prize will be limited to those living in North America. For your chance to win all 13 cookbooks, all you have to do is donate. A $10 donation will get you one raffle ticket toward the prize. To bid on my prize, you'll need the code CA01.

Donation/ticket buying instructions:

1. Choose a prize (or prizes) from the master list. A list of Canadian donations can also be found on The Domestic Goddess blog.

2. Go to the donation site and make a donation.

3. Please specify which prize you'd like in the 'Personal Message' section in the donation form when confirming your donation. You must write in how many tickets per prize, and please use the prize code (for example CA01). Each $10 you donate will give you one raffle ticket toward a prize of your choice. For example, a donation of $50 can be 2 tickets for CA01 and 3 tickets for CA02. Please write 2xCA01, 3xCA02
