VANCOUVER — Denny’s Canada has announced the results of its most recent national fundraising initiative for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada (BBBSC), in partnership with its parent company’s community give-back program, Northland Cares.
Earlier this summer, the company donated $2 from every order of its Berry Stuffed French Toast Slam to BBBSC, successfully fundraising more than $21,000.
For more than 110 years, BBBSC has worked within local communities to ignite the power and potential of young people, championing the health and well-being of youth. The organization steps in before it’s too late, to help prevent the physical and mental effects of adverse childhood experiences. Its mentoring intervention helps ensure children develop the skills necessary to overcome these adversities and grow into healthy adults.
Through its enduring partnership with BBBSC, Denny’s Canada has donated $31,000 to date, underscoring its dedication to making a meaningful difference to the lives of Canada’s most vulnerable populations across Canada which each Denny’s location is committed to serve.
“Engaging with our local communities and giving back is part of our core values at Denny’s,” says Deborah Gagnon, president & Chief Operating Officer of Denny’s Canada. “We’re thrilled to partner with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada again this year and make an impact through our parent company’s overarching initiative, Northland Cares. Thank you to our team members and guests for the continued support in helping Denny’s raise [more than] $21,000 for this meaningful cause.”
