Harmony House
I am writing to thank you and everyone involved with Bon Appetit for your generous donation to Harmony House.
As the only second-stage shelter in all of eastern Ontario and western Quebec, we provide crucial support to numerous women and children each year. We rely on donations from individuals and organizations such as yours to keep our doors open and to provide programs and services for our residents and former residents.

OCRI
The donation received from the 2009 Bon Appetit event will provide 10,000 breakfasts to students in need. It is an honour to partner with Bon Appetit to support these students.
The commitment that Bon Appetit has made to help us ensure that children in Ottawa get the healthy start they need to succeed at school and to contribute to our workforce and community is truly appreciated. We would not be able to do our work without the support of events like Bon Appetit.
