Restaurant.com is stoking a “fire” for giving this chilly holiday season by sharing some of the warm notes sent in by “Feed It Forward” participants. On Thanksgiving, the company launched the Feed It Forward initiative, which enables individuals nationwide to give away up to 30 free, $10 gift certificates through Christmas. Now, with five days left, participants still have the opportunity to give up to $300 in gift certificates per day, or $1,500 over five days to friends, family and loved ones.

Restaurant.com recently launched “Feed It Forward,” on Thanksgiving Day, an online initiative celebrating the gift of giving during the down economy by enabling people to give away—at no cost—$30 million of Restaurant.com gift certificates up until Christmas.

Household cutbacks, job losses and foreclosures still loom large, affecting people’s lives and abilities to give during the holidays. A down economy also has the potential to deprive people of the gift of giving, a harsh reality during the time of year when giving matters most. Restaurant.com announced today the return of “Feed It Forward,” a 30-day initiative to support the important act of giving, despite these persistent economic hardships. Now until Christmas, individuals are entitled to give up to $9,000 in Restaurant.com gift certificates, from a total pool of $30 million, to family, friends and co-workers located anywhere in the country—at no cost.

2009 has been a challenging year for restaurants as operators have been forced to close their doors in record numbers due to slower traffic and rising costs.

Now until Christmas, individuals can share a total of three million $10 Restaurant.com gift certificates for free, which will result in filling as many as three million tables at restaurants nationwide.
