Join the Dine & Donate Movement! 

The Ottawa Network for Education is thrilled to invite restaurants in the Ottawa area to join our impactful Dine & Donate Program. By participating, you can showcase your culinary excellence while making a meaningful difference in the lives of local students. 

What is the Dine & Donate Program? 

The Dine & Donate Program is a unique opportunity for restaurants to contribute to the betterment of children and youth in our community. Here’s how it works: 

  1. Choose a signature dish (or two): As a participating restaurant, you have the freedom to select one item from your menu to be designated as the Dine & Donate dish. This dish will carry a special mark, indicating that a portion of its proceeds will be donated to the Ottawa Network for Education’s School Breakfast Program. 
  1. Drive social impact: For every sale of the designated dish, your restaurant will donate $1 to the Ottawa Network for Education’s School Breakfast Program. This contribution will directly support our mission to provide every student in need with a nutritious breakfast. 

Why Join the Dine & Donate Program?
