We at Food for Cause are so very excited to launch our website because we want to better

connect and communicate with you -- our Foodies! So it is with great pleasure and excitement

that I write my very first blog for our Food for Cause website.


What can you expect from our website?


We will strive to bring you information about various worthy charities you would like to know

more about. We all would like to be informed about the many incredible organizations out there

making a real difference in our community. Let us introduce you to some of them and maybe

you might feel inspired…


As for inspiration, we all love food. Some of us love to cook, some of us love to eat, and many

of us love to do both. So through our common passion for food, we hope to bring together our

community of Foodies in hopes that we can all cook together, eat together, and learn together.

We will feature various recipes from our previous events as well as new ones from me and

from other Foodies. You are also invited to “Ask Namee” – please email me any food-related

questions you may have and I will post some of the answers on the blog.


And as you all know, it takes a village. It takes all of our collective efforts to make a difference.

Fortunately for us, each and every one of our Foodies is unique, special and talented. And

when you bring such people together, through the shared experience of supporting a charity

and cooking and eating together, our sense of community is reinforced and a new forum is

created. We meet, exchange ideas, and share thoughts on how we can DO MORE -- be it

in our personal lives, in the kitchen or out there in the community doing more for those less

fortunate than us.


And speaking of doing more, all of us at Food for Cause are so incredibly grateful for the

donation of huge amounts of time and the unlimited patience of Mr. Jaffar at Mindsync

(jaffar@mindsyncindia.com) who volunteered to put together the entire website and maintain it

for us. He fully understood us and our mission and was more generous than I had any hope of

expecting. To him, our gratitude is infinite.


Finally, now that the introductions are said, please check our website frequently for updates on

new featured charities, our upcoming events and my blog for tips and recipes from me and other

Foodies. And as always, a big, sincere THANK YOU goes out to all of our Foodies for your

enormous support and encouragement.


So come and join us. Find out about our next event and we hope to see you there!


Wishing you the very best,


Namee Oberst
