Welcome to the "Do the Math" Challenge Cambridge blog!
From October 4-8, 2010, several members of the Cambridge community will be eating from a typical food hamper in order to draw attention to poverty in our community and what many people on social assistance experience on a regular basis. This is in support of the Put Food in the Budget Campaign, which is calling for a $100 Healthy Food Suppliment in Ontario to support the health and well being of all Ontarians.
Follow along as the participants share their thoughts.

Kevin's Article
Check out Kevin Swayze's article in the Record here.
I read the article and then found this blog. My daughter and I were planning a similar project but were going to buy groceries on a very limited budget like $20 a week each. I have been trying to determine how much money the working poor may have left over for groceries once they pay their other bills.
