The Burrito Project in under two years has grown from a couple of people on bikes passing out some burritos to feed the hungry to several hundred volunteers in multiple chapters all over the United States.
Burrito Project is an idea, a tool for groups of friends to become active participants in their communities. This Myspace page is dedicated to the promotion of burrito project and is meant to be a motivational tool for new projects to begin. The projects make and hand out bean and rice burritos, or other foods, to the homeless. They operate as independent self-sufficient groups throughout the country and world. Burrito project is constantly expanding and new projects are popping up on a weekly basis!!
undisputed, social network heavy weight champion of the WORLD, the one, the only, Myspace (ding, ding, ding)!
