PARTNERSHIP SKIPTHEDISHES We are so excited for all of the beautiful submissions we’ve been receiving for our Food for Thought campaign in partnership with @skipthedishes! Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 Canadian Kids are Food Insecure?... Together with our friends at @skipthedishes, we're going to do something about it. That's why we are asking for YOUR help as teachers, parents, brothers, sisters, friends and family. Let's positively impact youth across Canada together, and put a stop to food insecurity. Here's how it works! Running until World Hunger Day (May 28) we are trying to raise awareness, and funds, for Canadian kids that are food insecure! Head to www.mealshare.ca/foodforthought (link in bio) and download our Food For Thought resource package. The package is designed to support thoughtful conversations with your kids or students around food insecurity. For every beautiful activity sent back to us (take a picture and send it by email or mail!) @SkipTheDishes will provide 5 meals to youth in need! We are so excited to see the impact this will have on youth in need! Submission details and package found in our bio!

CALGARY // As Popeye used to say, We are strong to the finish because we eat our spinach! We are sure it still counts when it is on this amazing Olive Oyl pizza with garlic butter, spinach, mushrooms, mozza, shaved parmesan, truffle oil!! This pizza also strengthens our community because it is the Mealshare Item @spotonyyc & @4thspotkitchenbar which means it helps provide meals to children in need. Together 4th Spot and Spot On have shared almost 13,000 meals!! That’s a heck of a reason to keep eating our spinach

MOTHER’S DAY Mother verb. A woman who loves unconditionally, leads by example, and puts others before herself. We are grateful for all the Moms out there who have loved, led and sacrificed. Consider looking to support a Mealshare partner that is offering something special for Mom this Sunday. As we continue to support local partners that support Mealshare - we make Mom proud. This strawberry vanilla marbled Bundt cake from @radiusdining is going to help Mom feel the gratitude and love!

POUTINE WEEK It is our community leader, Mona’s favourite week of the year. @poutinewithpurpose! When Mona started with us, her first official task was making her rounds to many of the amazing Calgary restaurants that were supporting Mealshare through Poutine with Purpose. No wonder she loves her job so much Since that time the food event has expanded to our Mealshare cites, Vancouver, Victoria, and Hamilton. Join Mona in supporting our local restaurants and the youth in our community by heading out to a participating restaurant patio (or ordering take-out) for some fries, curds, & gravy. Every poutine ordered provides a meal to a youth in need! And you better hurry - only one day left! #OhMyCurd
