BC residents support Japan

Fundraisers underway across B.C.

With the recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan, B.C. residents are opening their hearts and doing what they can to help.

Friendship between British Columbia and Japan runs deep and one of the ways we show our friendship is with food. That’s why there’s been so many restaurants hosting fundraisers and specials with proceeds going to Japan.

Individuals can help in their own way. Consider hosting a party. Instead of bringing gifts, guests can bring a donation to the Red Cross: www.redcross.ca/article.asp?id=000005&tid=003.

Do you have an idea for a fundraiser, or would you like to report on a fundraiser you attended. Visit our Facebook page or our forum at bcrestaurants.ca/foodbbs/foodbbs.asp?languageCode=2&lang=2. Are you a restaurant that is considering hosting a fundraiser for Japan? Visit bcrestaurants.ca for information on how to post an event.
