Meet the Chef's

Tonight, Travis and I are going to Meet the Chef's. If you've never been, it's basically Taste of Saskatchewan but indoors. There are probably 30 or more restaurants participating this year. All of the proceeds go to the Friendship Inn here in Saskatoon. The good news is that we have once again sold out so the Friendship Inn will get a great donation again this year!

Since the mall sells the tickets, I get to go on our boss' dime, so that makes the evening even better:-)

The Friendship Inn is a soup kitchen that provides 2 meals daily for the transient, homeless, and less fortunate, 365 days a year. They also provide the Children Not In School Program, Pro Bono Law Clinic, Job Search Help, Public Health Nurses, and they work closely with the Department of Social Services, providing or arranging for counseling, referrals, housing, advances, treatment, furniture grants, medical forms, and clothing. A great cause to support.
