The holidays can be the toughest time of the year. Even those of us who have a huge amount tend to feel the things we are missing more acutely. For those facing food insecurity in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, this is especially true. This makes it all the more sweet to be able to help give back to the people in our community who need a little help.
Brands For Better Foundation was delighted to send a team of volunteers to the historic Save on Meats building in Gastown to cook and serve a three course meal for members of the community. Dubbed ‘Plenty of Plates’ these nights are hosted by A Better Life Foundation. They’re one of the incredible initiatives operating from the Save on Meats building to fight food insecurity: together they’ve served more than 4,300,000 meals to people in the Downtown Eastside in less than 10 years.
