This BGC Day, Mary Brown’s Chicken will endeavor to raise $100,000 to give back in a big way and further support BGC Canada’s life changing youth initiatives.
TORONTO, July 29, 2024 /CNW/ – Opportunity Changes Everything as Mary Brown’s Chicken is set to host their BGC Day, an annual fundraising initiative across all Mary Brown’s Chicken locations, this Wednesday, July 31, 2024, in support of BGC Canada (formerly Boys & Girls Clubs of Canada).
Every location nationwide will be donating CAD 2.00 from each meal, feast and combo sold to support BGC Canada’s life-changing work. And in the spirit of generosity, members of Mary Brown’s Chicken Senior Leadership Team will be visiting a local Toronto BGC Club to donate warm meals.
Mary Brown’s Chicken, a National Corporate Partner of BGC Canada, also encourages Canadians to make donations directly through the charity or at coin donation boxes this BGC Day to help create opportunities for underserved children and youth across the country.
“This marks our 3rd year celebrating BGC Day with Mary Brown’s Chicken and we are deeply grateful for their continued support,” said Owen Charters, President & CEO of BGC Canada. “Our shared values continue to shine bright as BGC Day helps us to create life-changing opportunities for countless children across the county.”
As a BGC Canada partner, Mary Brown’s Chicken is proud to continue supporting BGC Canada. In fact, since the partnership commenced, Mary Brown’s Chicken has raised $544,000 for BGC Canada, $180,000 of which was raised during BGC Day.
Together, Mary Brown’s Chicken and BGC Canada invite Canadians to indulge in their favourite meal on July 31 to help Canadian children coast-to-coast realize their full potential through opportunities and access.
