Just a few rules of the Cookoff
It's pretty simple
1. Your Thanksgiving Cookoff lens must be created as part of this project. Existing, earlier lenses don't count.
2. When you make your lens, change the royalty setting (in your lens Workshop) to give 100% to the charity on our list that you like the most. That's how we'll know which organization to donate the money to.
3. If you steal or cheat or fake anyone out, we'll disqualify you and delete your lenses. If you enter with a bunch of empty, spammy lenses, we'll do the same.
4. Yes you can make as many lenses for the Cookoff as you'd like! The more great food lenses you make, the better your chances of getting picked. Maybe. Maybe all it takes is one tremendous one. Your call.
5. We'll post every day (weekends too) on the very popular Lens of the Day blog, starting November 2nd, with the daily winning Cookoff lens.
6. Participating nonprofits: Yes, absolutely, you should invite as many donors and volunteers and friends to enter. It's free. And the real win is that you get donations, for free, every month, for every lens, long after this contest is over. It really adds up.
7. The Grand Prize: On Thanksgiving Day 2009, we'll take all winning lenses from earlier in the month and put them into a big vote-off. The lens with the most votes by December 1st 2009 at 12pm EST wins $5,000 for the charity it supports.

We're no longer accepting new entries for the contest.
But it *is* time to vote on the finalists!
Here's how the Cookoff worked:Starting November 2nd 2009, Squidoo will be giving away $1000 to charity every day through Thanksgiving. With a $5000 grand prize vote-off on Thanksgiving Day.
If you want to:
* Win $1000 for your favorite charity on our list of over 100 charities
* And get featured as the Lens of the Day (with exposure to over 100,000 people)
* And have fun sharing your best food and kitchen tips and recommendations.
*And even get a cute exclusive Thanksgiving theme on your lens....
Then enter the virtual Cookoff here!
All you do is create a great 'foody' lens on Squidoo as part of the contest. That's it. Lenses are free and easy webpages to make. Could be about your grandmother's pumpkin pie recipe, your family's thanksgiving dinner menu, tried and true baking secrets, top 5 holiday coffee flavors -- anything and everything food, it all goes. Every day we (that's us at Squidoo HQ) will pick 1 lens we like best, post the winner on our Lens of the Day blog, and award the charity you selected $1000.
It's that simple. Real people raising money for charity, just by making free lenses about the stuff they love most.

Why we're hosting a Charity Cookoff
Raising money for charity is a huge part of why we started Squidoo
We've invented a completely new way to raise money (for free) for charity online. It's called Squidoo.Yes, Squidoo's been running for a few years, and yes, we've already given away hundreds of thousands of dollars to incredible organizations like The Acumen Fund, Room to Read and JDRF. But that's not enough.
Not enough organizations are ready and eager and fearless enough to empower their volunteers and let them each make a page about something (anything) they care about. A page that raises money for that charity, for free, every month, forever.
So for the month of November, we're making it even easier for smart charities to get on board.
We posted all the winners, one a day, on the official Lens of the Day blog

- Megan, you got me off my graduate student duff and reminded me I've got this lovely old sourdough starter that's feeling lonely. So I made my cookoff lens while waiting for it to rise. Not bad for a computer nerd who mostly lives on Thai and Japanese take-out!
Alas, I am a flake. I made most of the lens, then searched Squidoo to see how to enter it in the Charity Cookoff, then saw I'd missed the gorgeous Thanksgiving theme and had to re-do the lens from scratch. Luckily it didn't take long, and the lens is finished before the bread is out of the oven!
Always happy to add another charity lens or two.

All royalty settings have been changed over, this is the only thing I'm unclear on. This is a great opportunity for all of us, and I want to do my part and be supportive of it.

- LOVE this idea. What a great way to raise money for charity. I've sent an e-mail out to the CAER Food Shelf staff asking them to contact any and all friends/volunteers to get them writing up their favorite recipes on Squidoo. I'm sure hoping that we can win some money because we do holiday meals for about 600 families (for both Thanksgiving and Christmas). Thanks so much for the opportunity... CAER is thrilled to be a Squidoo charity partner. And for any of you looking for a great charity to support, check out my CAER Food Shelf lens (http://www.squidoo.com/community-aid-elk-river-caer-food-shelf). Thanks and good luck to everyone!!!

- This is exciting. I hope our non profit 501c3 status comes in so we can have a chance at this for our Friends of the Park organization. Squidoo does such a great job of helping charities and I am sure this extra money will go far in accomplishing their missions. Thank you, Squidoo!
