Restaurants across Canada joining Amnesty International to stop violence against women
(NC)-It’s a winning recipe to stop violence against women. Between June 1-15, 2008 restaurants across Canada are joining Amnesty International’s Taste for Justice campaign to raise funds for human rights and help stop violence against women.
For these two weeks, participating Taste for Justice restaurants and other food-based businesses are donating part proceeds towards Amnesty’s human rights research and campaigns, and helping to raise awareness about the organization’s global Stop Violence Against Women campaign.
For owners like Simon Saab of The Table restaurant in Ottawa, participating in Taste for Justice is a great way to make a difference: “Amnesty International represents many people like me who come together to support human rights globally and are voices for those who need to be heard.”
To find Taste for Justice restaurants in your community, visit www.tasteforjustice.ca and click on “Dine Out”, or call 1-800-AMNESTY (1-800-266-3789).
