As someone who only gives monthly to Oxfam so he can blank the chuggers on Moorgate with a clear conscience, I can't pretend to be the most charitable person in London. But there are people in the world who really do have a selfless desire to make the world a better place, and for this we should all be thankful. Specifically, we should first be thankful and then we should give generously to Menu For Hope, brainchild of the prolific and well-respected US blogger Pim of Chez Pim and her UK representative Jeanne at Cook Sister.
The idea is that food lovers from all over the place offer up prizes to be won, and you buy electronic raffle tickets through the website. There is some fantastic stuff available this year including a meal at Heston Blumenthal's pub in Bray, a personal foodie tour of London, and even a chance to accompany Observer food critic Jay Rayner on one of his future restaurant visits.
So go ahead and see what takes your fancy - it's all for a good cause.
Then make your donation here - making sure to enter the code for the prize you want in your comments.
Good luck!

Thanks so much for promoting this event Chris :) And for your readers' information, there are loads of prizes that have not yet attracted many bids, so for your £5 you stand an excellent chance of winning a £55 cooking class voucher, a £75 Italian goodie hamper, or even a custom-designed 3-tier cake for weddings or other special occasions!
