Imagine a dinner table stretching from Victoria Island to Newfoundland....full of different types of foods, flavours and faces!  Everyone is called to the table! Everyone is called to share!

You can join our table during our 1,000 Dinners For 100,000 Dreams event! From May 1 to 10th, 2015, AboutFace is hosting dinner in homes across Canada. Gather your family, friends, neighbours, colleagues, even strangers to your table and together raise awareness about the joy of belonging, the joy of sharing, and the joy of laughter. Together we can raise funds to support Camp Trailblazers to ensure that every child can belong.
