So glad to help organize this event
I've had the amazing opportunity to help organize and promote this event in an official capacity and have been deeply moved by the generosity and creativity of Bloggers Unite members.
Heifer and Bloggers Unite have set up a Team Heifer where you can give money in connection with this event:
budurl.com/buteam
So far we've raised several hundred dollars.
There are also many dozens of excellent blog posts, Twitter updates, YouTube videos and other social media items that we've published as a collective for this day.
At my own website I've made an article:

I plan to post a follow-up article soon, quoting some of the best of what you all have put out there. 
Thanks for letting me be a part of this!

Unite For Hunger And Hope
http://www.heifer.org/site/c.s…
All you have to do to help end world hunger is to join thousands of others bloggers on April 29 and write a post about world hunger.
BlogCatalog members and Heifer International are partnering to call for the end of world hunger and start of hope on April 29. All we ask is that you join thousands of other bloggers and write a post about world hunger on April 29. You can make a difference. • Right now, more than 500 million people are living in "absolute poverty" and more than 15 million children die of hunger every year. • World Health Organization estimates that one-third of the population is underfed and another third is starving. • Even in the United States, 46 percent of African-American children and 49 percent of Latino children are considered chronically hungry. Organizations like Heifer International are the solution. Every day in April, Heifer International is lifting people out of poverty by providing communities with livestock and agricultural training to improve lives and inspire hope. What can you do? • Join this event and add a badge to your blog before April 29. • Watch for upcoming news releases and topic backgrounders. • Visit Heifer International to learn more about Pass On The Gift. • Make a small donation or take some other action to end world hunger. • Post about world hunger on April 29 with links to solutions all over the world. Select posts will be featured by BlogCatalog; Heifer International; Copywrite, Ink.; and on the future Bloggers Unite blog. Details to follow.
