I found these really cool pics on Flickr; a very creative and fun way to help. Amazing Sesame Street sculptures out of canned food. I love the way the constructed Big Bird, with all the right colors; and Oscar the Grouch in his garbage can. Beautiful work:
Mission Statement: Big Bird & Oscar (photos by wallyg)
This years sculpture "Big Bird & Oscar" has been designed to address the growing problem of hunger among 34 million adults and 16 million children in the United States. It is for this reason that Big Bird and Oscar have been constructed both of adult and children's foods.
Big Bird has always represented a parental figure, giving hope and guidance to young children all over the world. While Oscar might be grouchy sometimes, he is always willing to sing a song to enterain the neighborhood children.
It is with love that Oscar has been constructed of children's food to help sooth the growing number of hungry children, and Big Bird is built of adult food and represents the optimism and out continuing belief that hunger can be ended.
