ShareUrMeal gives back with every click
The next time you watch someone at a restaurant whip out a cell phone to take a picture of their meal don’t be so quick to roll your eyes, it could be for a good cause.
The person might be using ShareUrMeal, a Philadelphia-based service that allows users to post picture of meals. For every picture shared, one of ShareUrMeal’s sponsors donates one dollar to hunger relief causes through the United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania.
“As people lose their homes they lose their kitchen tables,” says founder and Philly-native Devon Perry. “I really like the idea of neighbors helping neighbors, and, through ShareUrMeal, you can help your neighbor by simply sharing a picture of your dinner and at the same time stay grateful for the food you have.”
The idea for ShareUrMeal blossomed out of a Perry family tradition, and sharing snapshots has become a mealtime habit for over 300 ShareUrMeal members since the site launched in October of last year.
