Dine Out to Help Stop Violence Against Women

Supporting human rights has never been so easy and delicious!

From June 1 to 15, 2009, restaurants from Halifax to Vancouver supported Amnesty International’s work to stop violence against women by donating a percentage of their sales proceeds to Amnesty.

Amnesty International would like to express its deepest appreciation to all the businesses that participated in Taste for Justice, and all of you who visited these restaurants from June 1-15.

Totals are starting to come in from our restaurant partners, and we hope to publish the full amount towards the end of the fall!

Thanks to all of our Taste for Justice 2009 Restaurants
