On Sunday, Nov. 19th, we brought together Montrealers who had gently used items to give away (clothes, toys etc) with newly arrived asylum seekers who needed those things. Together they shared a restaurant-worthy meal cooked by kvr kitchen and the tickets bought by Montrealers paid for the meals of their new friends.
Boucherie Lawrence and la Ferme des Quatre Temps, as well as kvr kitchen, donated all the food. Funds raised will go in part to Maison d'Haïti, and partly to paying for transportation of furniture donations, in partnership with the YMCA Residence.
