Organized by: Campaign 2000 — https://www.eventbrite.com/o/37719792123
Join us on Nov 24, 2026 for in-person launch of Ontario Campaign 2000’s Poverty Report Card and Daily Bread Food Bank’s Who’s Hungry Report.
November 24th marks the passing of the 1989 all-party House of Commons resolution to end child poverty by the year 2000. As poverty and food insecurity continue to affect children and families, these reports offer an opportunity to deepen our understanding and build a collective response. Your perspectives and experiences will be an important part of the conversation.
The event will feature a panel presentation, small group breakout discussions to discuss advocacy strategy at the municipal, provincial and federal levels and a Take Action Table.
Please come ready to share your updates and ideas. If you have petitions, letter writing campaigns or any actions to share, please bring them for the Take Action Table.
