cans for comments!

It's here people--Cans For Comments starts today! Woo-hoo...I'm crazy excited!

To recap, and for those of you who didn't see my original post about the event, Cans For Comments is a blog fundraiser {set up by Amanda from Life, Experience Needed} to help support our local food banks and shelters during the holiday and winter season.

My Mission:
As one of the lovely co-hosts, my mission is to donate cans of food, toys, or clothing based on how many comments {on ANY post!} or new followers I receive during the event.
Cans For Comments will run from December 7-15.
{All comments/new follows MUST be within this time period to count toward my donations.}

What I'm Donating:
Every 5 comments = 1 can of food.
Every 20 comments = 1 toy or clothing item.
Every new follower {can be via GFC, Bloglovin', Twitter, Facebook, etc} = $1

* Please leave a comment to let me know how you are following so I can keep track. Each follow is worth $1...so if you follow both Bloglovin' and Twitter, that counts as $2 :) *

Where My Donations Are Going:
All cans of food will be donated to my local food bank and all toys will be donated to Toys For Tots or to my church's Angel Tree program. All money raised will be donated to my local animal shelter, Pets Alive. {Because animals need warm beds and food too!}

Check out what my lovely co-hosts are donating...
Amanda is donating 1 can for every comment & $1 for every new GFC follower
Dawn is donating 10 cents for every comment & $1 for every 5 new GFC followers
Liz is donating 1 can for every comment & $1 for every new GFC follower
Shary is donating 1 can for every 5 comments
