MANNA gives you the chance to help support a good cause with tasty treats


This time of year is the time when most companies do a big push to get in last minute sales before the end of the year. They spend a great deal of money on advertising to drive sales. 

But during this holiday season and the frenzy of consumerism it’s easy to forget those that are dealing with life threatening illnesses. 

This is why MANNA which provides delicious and medically appropriate meals and nutritional support to those suffering in the Philadelphia and South Jersey area uses this time to sell their pies. The Pie in the Sky program has been running for 14 yrs.

Their goal is to pre-sell 10,000 cakes and pies that are available to be picked up before Thanksgiving. The program can raise $250,000 to support their efforts. 

Manna is looking for volunteers to not only help sort and deliver pies to pick up locations but you can also use social media to promote their sales efforts. 

You can use your facebook, twitter and other social sites to promote the program and let everyone know how to buy and pick up their treats. 

You can go to www.mannapies.org to learn what flavors are available, where you can pick up and how to share this with all of your friends. 

Check this out and share with everyone you know. The deadline to order is NOON on Friday November 19th. You can pick up on Tuesday November 23rd and Wednesday November 24th

Spread the word about the sale, it’s the tastiest social media effort you will ever be lucky enough to join.
