Refuse Lunch, Donate to Leukemia

While we’ve seen this in our inbox before, somehow, we neglected to share it. In support of the U.K.’s Leukaemia Research efforts, RefuseALunch taunts marketing folks into donating by first, in jest, of course, announcing, “All Marketing People Are Scum,” then quickly recanting to, “All Marketing People Are Not Scum.” The effort encourages people to, during the month of October, refuse lunch invitations and ask that the money that would have been spent on lunch be donated to the cause. Worthy enough. After all, most business lunches are just boondoggle excuses to spend the company’s expense account fund.
