On October 2nd 2009 I will be participating in an event called The Feast Kitchen where startups will get to present their ideas for social good. These are companies (some non-profit some for profit) trying to make the world a better place.

I have two tickets to give away and invite anyone interested in attending the chance to win tickets by simply letting me know in the comments, a tweet(use hashtag #feastongood) or a blog post why you want to attend.

You can get more information and purchase your ticket below.

The goal of this event is a way of showing the world that you can combine creativity + purpose + good into a company. I will be judging the presentations with a group of others and hopefully get to meet some great companies and entrepreneurs throughout the morning.

Below are the companies lined up to present as of today:

Michael Mossoba, Goodness500.org

Nicole Betancourt, Parent Earth

Jose Serrano-Reyes, Trust Art

You can also read more about the event from Sam Huleatt who describes the Feast and the Kitchen as a “mini-ted like event”.
