Restaurants for Change
Friday, October 16, 2015
On October
21st Restaurants for Change is taking place in 13 cities throughout Canada and
all you have to do to get involved is dine out at one of the 50+ participating restaurants! Each restaurant will donate all or a portion of their proceeds
from their dinner service that night to Community Food Centres Canada.
What is
Restaurant for Change?
Restaurant
for change is an annual fundraising event launched by Community Food Centres
Canada. The event brings together restaurants that support local food systems
to help create awareness around healthy food accessibility and enabling food
programs to low-income communities that are dealing with food insecurity, poor
health and social isolation.
How Can You Help?
Make a
reservation at one of the participating restaurants on October 21st and enjoy an amazing dinner
where proceeds will help the food community centre in your city and help
support a national movement of good food for all. In Toronto the proceeds
raised will help fund Community Food Centres Canada and established food
centres such as The Stop Community Food Centre and the Regent Park Community Food Centre. Funds raised in communities where there is no Community Food
Centre support the Good Food Organizations program, which provides grants,
training and resources to 75 community food organizations across Canada.
