HOW CAN YOU HELP?

There are several ways in which your help would be welcome.

As a collector

This entails asking restaurants if they would like a collection box and then emptying the box as necessary, and sending the proceeds to our office.
We would like each collector to service five to twenty restaurants, depending on how close the restaurants are to each other and how much time you are able commit.
 
We provide boxes and receipt books, also a letter to present to the restaurant explaining who we are with a space for your phone number in the event they would wish to contact you.  We also provide a collection form.

A good way to get started is to get a well-known restaurant to accept a box and arrange for your local newspaper to photograph you presenting it to the owner or manager.  We will give you a Press Release to make it easier for the reporter.

This is a volunteer position and we would be pleased to send you an application form.

As a restaurant owner.

We would be delighted to send you a box if you would undertake to empty it regularly and to send us a check for the amount collected.  We would send you a receipt, which of course is not a tax-deductible one, for each submission, also an annual certificate for the total together with our financial statement for that year.

As a restaurant patron.

Choose to eat at a restaurant displaying a “Crumbs From the Table” collection box.
If your favorite restaurant does not have one you could suggest to the management that they might like to consider having a box.

Even if none of these options are for you now, you could have a pot at home and contribute when you eat at a restaurant. Periodically you could send us a cheque which of course would be tax deductible.

We thank you for your interest, and maybe you would like to help us in the future.
