*THE FOODIE COLLECTIVE RAISES $485 FOR MISSION BON ACCUEIL*
All of us at The Foodie Collective would like to thank everyone of you who has donated to our Christmas fundraiser. We managed to raise $485! That is $185 more than our original goal. All the money has already been donated to the Mission Bon Accueil here in Montreal.

The amount raised will allow to serve nearly 160 warm meals on Christmas day.
