Honouring Truth & Reconciliation Day with Every Order 🪶🧡

Every year on **September 30**, Canadians across the country pause to recognize the **National Day for Truth and Reconciliation**. It's a day for reflection, learning, and action—a day to honour Survivors of residential schools, their families, and the children who never came home.

At Valley Eats, we believe in supporting our communities in meaningful ways. This year, we're humbled to stand alongside our customers, restaurant partners, and neighbours with a special initiative in support of the **Orange Shirt Society**. Their important work helps keep the conversation alive and ensures that "Every Child Matters" is never forgotten.

How Our Initiative Works

On **September 30**, Valley Eats will donate **50 cents from every order** placed through our platform directly to the Orange Shirt Society.

And that's just the beginning. Several of our incredible restaurant partners have stepped forward to join us. For every order placed from one of the **participating restaurants** (listed in the *Orange Shirt Day* section in-app), they'll match our contribution. That means together, we'll donate **$1 per order** to this important cause.

Why This Matters

The **Orange Shirt Society** was founded to raise awareness of the lasting impacts of residential schools and to support reconciliation efforts across Canada. Donations fund educational programs, resources, and community initiatives that remind us that *every child matters*—not only on September 30, but every day.

By coming together—customers, local restaurants, and Valley Eats—we're turning everyday meals into an opportunity to support truth, healing, and change.

Join Us in Making an Impact

When you place your order on **September 30**, you're not just enjoying your favourite local food—you're helping build a stronger, more compassionate future.

We encourage you to wear orange, learn, listen, and reflect. And if you order with Valley Eats, you'll know that your meal carries a little extra meaning this Truth & Reconciliation Day.

Together, one order at a time, we can make a difference.
