About The BC Hospitality Foundation’s Tip Out To Help Campaign:
October is Tip Out To Help Month: B.C. Hospitality Foundation is starting a fundraising program this October. Called Tip Out To Help, the program encourages members of the hospitality industry to raise funds however they please and donate them to BCHF to help their colleagues in need. Some examples of easy fundraising ideas are staff donating a toonie per shift, management donating a percentage of sales, and/or team fundraisers. Every toonie helps. We hope you’ll join the movement and register a team at www.tipouttohelp.com
