Hello!
We are a group of students who go to the University of Knoxville. In our group, we have Annie Pan, Anna Jones, John Barrentine, and Chase Clemmer. For our campaign, we are raising money to help the homeless, homebound, and unemployed people of Knoxville, and the Love Kitchen organization with their much-needed building renovations. Also, we are trying to raise awareness for the people in need because many there are many people who can not support themselves, due to no income.
During our campaign, we are focus on doing a canned food drive at the University of Knoxville. We believe that people can donate a can or two to help the people who are in need of food because most canned food are only a dollar. When people donate their cans to us, all of the cans would go straight to the Love Kitchen organization.
In today’s society, there are still many people who are struggling day to day to make ends meet. However, with the organization Love Kitchen, they have helped many people who are in need. In 1984, Helen and Ellen Ashe served their first 22 customers in East Knoxville, and they have grown to now regularly provide 3,000 meals each week to support the needy. However, the place at which meals are provided at is in need of dire renovation. The outside building of the Love Kitchen is currently impaired, due to old paint coming off. We believe that people who donate money to the people in need and the building renovation would help the Love Kitchen organization because all of the funds would go straight to them.
Our blog’s main goal is to get personal with our audience. As the popular saying goes, “…the key to someone’s heart is through their stomach,” (anonymous) and what better way to connect with our audience than by sharing personal recipes with you. In addition, the blogs for our campaign would consist of our favorite and least favorite dishes and our recipes. We believe that many people have a favorite dish that they would like to share, and we think that sharing our favorite and least favorite dishes would be relatable to those who have similar tastes.
Moreover, recipes are important to many individuals because these are recipes that have been passed down generation after generation. During holidays, recipes are used in homes and many families tend to cook large meals for their loved ones. For instance, many families frequently roast a turkey for Thanksgiving to share a nice family meal with blessing and thanks. These turkeys are carefully prepped and recipes oftentimes take hours of preparation. We believe that cooking from a recipe comes from the heart because family members are taking their time to cook their loved ones’ favorite meals.
In conclusion, when we write about our favorite and least favorite dishes, we hope there is a relatable connection with the audience because they can agree on the things we say when we write our blogs. When we write and post our blog online, we believe that it is important to communicate with the audience because the audiences’ feedback is our way of communicating with them.
