Chefs in the House Virtual Fundraiser for Dan’s Legacy
by
Chefs in the House, an event series spanning October and November, is a virtual fundraiser for Dan’s Legacy BC.
Amidst the busy gala fundraising season, one event always stood out to me: The Dan’s Legacy Chefs Charity Dinner. The delicious multi-course gourmet meal was made with surplus ingredients and prepared by a handful of talented local chefs. Due to COVID-19 we cannot be together so the organization has come up with a very clever, and tasty, alternative.

Since the start of COVID-19, Dan’s Legacy has fielded a 50% increase in referrals from other agencies, as well as a 50% increase in youth hospitalized for psychosis, overdose and suicide attempts. Dan’s Legacy’s team of trauma-informed therapists go directly to the youth wherever they are, there is no wait list and its programs and counselling services are free.
Can’t tune in to all the classes? No problem! Each one will be recorded and sent to ticket holders for private viewing later.
