Sweetest Day: Sweets & Charity Swap

There is a little-known American holiday on the 3rd Sunday in October called "Sweetest Day". It is a day to say thank you, give little sweets to friends, and to remember those less fortunate than ourselves. Here is the Wikipedia entry on this holiday.

Let's have a swap in the spirit of this holiday by sharing some sweets with our Swap-bot partner and also by contributing to a food charity to help someone who doesn't have as much as we do.

We will:

• Have 1 partner.

• Send your partner sweets (candies, chocolates, etc.) with wishes for a happy Sweetest Day. (approximately $2 value)

• Contribute to a food-related charity in some way. This could be by giving money, donating food, or giving your time to help out with the charity.

• In your package, include a letter to your partner telling about the charity you selected and how you chose to honor them.

• Sending on time, packaging your swap appropriately to minimize breakage and leaks, and rating your partner are expected. Thanks!

• Have fun, and thank you for considering this sweet swap to delight our partners and to help those in need.
