Join the Food Revolution Today, #eatREAL!
The ‘eat REAL’ campaign, designed by the United States Healthful Food Council (USHFC), has partnered with the Jamie Oliver Food Foundation to encourage consumers to celebrate Food Revolution Day TODAY by standing up for real food by eating at a REAL Certified restaurant.
Food Revolution Day is the annual culmination of Chef Jamie Oliver’s campaign to get people better connected to their food. Today, communities across the globe will come together to celebrate fresh ingredients, share cooking skills, pass on food knowledge and eat great food.
“Food Revolution Day is all about people power…” said Chef Jamie Oliver, “…the Food Revolution has reached 75 countries, and we’re hearing about some really exciting plans for Food Revolution Day, which proves that the demand for better food education is a global phenomenon.”
The ‘eat REAL’ campaign, which USHFC launched in April 2013, is promoting the Food Revolution Day initiative by encouraging people to dine out on Friday, May 17 at one of the following 19 REAL Certified restaurants in the Washington, DC area: Busboys & Poets (all 4 locations), Commissary, Elizabeth’s Gone Raw, Energy Kitchen, Founding Farmers (DC location), Grillfish, i Ricchi, Juice Joint Café, Logan Tavern, Restaurant Nora, Ris, ShopHouse Asian Kitchen, Soupergirl, Table, The Heights and The Pig.
Reservations for most of these REAL Certified restaurants can be made by visiting OpenTable.
SUPPORT: #blog4good Goodwill of Greater Washington
As most of you know, I am a huge fan of the work that Goodwill of Greater Washington does in our community…and, of course, #1 fan of the Goodwill Fashionista.
This week, we are celebrating Goodwill Industries Week. In 2012, Goodwill directly affected the lives of more than 3,200 of our neighbors. These are people who have re-found the dignity that comes with being a contributing member of our society. Goodwill also diverted over 20 millions of trash from local landfills through their donation program.
In addition to training people for jobs, placing them into jobs, providing consumers with access to quality, low cost goods, and acting as one our region’s largest recyclers, Goodwill is also a job developer. With each new store and donation center that Goodwill opens, 25-30 new jobs are created.
Goodwill of Greater Washington’s mission is summed up by its tagline - “Transforming lives and communities”. Now you know how they do it.
Please help to share the mission of Goodwill of Greater Washington with others. If you’d like to learn more about Goodwill of Greater Washington, find the nearest store or donation center, please visit www.dcgoodwill.org or download their free mobile app from the iTunes app store.
