Hello and welcome to my fundraising page for Feed It Forward! https://feeditforward.ca/

Feed It Forward has two missions: to eradicate food insecurity and food waste. They collect unused food from grocery stores, restaurants and catering companies to cook nutritious, balanced meals for those in need. 

Here they are in the news:

About CareBands:

A year ago today, I observed how my negative thought patterns influenced my life and thus was born the #KindnessStartsWithMe campaign. Through personal story-telling, I encourage others to love and treat themselves with kindness. Come hang out on my Instagram page to learn new ideas for taking care of yourself and how to rewrite the negative script in your mind: www.instagram.com/laetitia.official. 

As part of my #KindnesStartsWithMe campaign and in partnership with Feed It Forward., I started the #CareBands charity project. Feed It Forward is an organization with two missions: to reduce food waste and to feed those who are food insecure. We have partnerships with restaurants and grocery stores around the GTA who donate their unused/unsold food for our kitchens to cook balanced and nutritious meals. We distribute these meals to various communities around Toronto as well in our Pay What You Can Grocery Store.

It is hard to take care of ourselves when we are missing tools for our survival, such as food security. This is why I chose to fundraise for Feed It Forward. Each donation of $20 through the #CareBands project will receive handmade a surprise handmade headband to wear during their self-care activities, such as to wash our face, do our makeup, clean the house. Let your headband remind you to enjoy your moments of self-love and to treat yourself with kindness.
