TORONTO — Days Inns – Canada has partnered with Food Banks Canada to provide a meaningful donation in aid of their Food-for-All initiative. The contribution will play a vital role in re-stocking food banks, facilitating the distribution of large-scale donations and sharing perishable items across Food Banks Canada’s extensive network.
All Days Inn locations across Canada are participating in the Feed Summer campaign from now until August 31. The campaign aims to benefit local food banks by encouraging guests and hotel teams to make monetary donations by scanning a unique QR code, volunteering or dropping off contributions at their nearest food banks.
“Between record-high need, rising food costs, and declining donations, it’s becoming harder and harder for food banks to keep up,” says Erin Filey-Wronecki, Chief Development and Partnership officer, Food Banks Canada. Thanks to the generosity of partners like Days Inns – Canada, we can focus on ensuring our coast-to-coast-to-coast network of over 4,750 food banks and community agencies can serve Canadians in need by providing fresh, nourishing food.”
“Last year, food bank use rose to the highest levels in Canadian history, accentuating the urgent need to address food insecurity. As a Canadian company, supporting local communities is paramount to us,” says Irwin Prince, president and COO of Days Inns – Canada. “We recognize the immense demand for food banks, and we’re very proud to be able to partner with Food Banks Canada.”
