Successful BBQ for the Children Thanks to Sodexo

The Sodexo and Ottawa Food Bank partnership cooks up another BBQ success for Ottawa Summer Camp children

As part of Ottawa Food Bank’s KickStart Program and Sodexo’s Feeding Our Future® campaign, nearly 300 excited children from the Ottawa area enjoyed a day of food, fun and activities at a free BBQ at the Canada Agriculture Museum on July 20th.

Throughout July and August, Sodexo employees volunteer their time to prepare up to 390 healthy lunches each day which supplement lunches provided and distributed by Ottawa Food Bank to Community House summer day camps.

Through this amazing initiative, and a flourishing partnership, a total of nine Community House summer day camps were able to participate in the BBQ and enjoy a day of sunshine, laughter and learning at the Agriculture Museum.

Ottawa Food Bank would like to thank Sodexo, their employees and the Canada Agriculture Museum for all their work and effort in making it a day to remember.
