The "Challenge" asked community leaders to take part in a public act of solidarity with people on social assistance by
living for one week with some very limited food options.
The "Challenge", inspired by The Stop Community Food Centre in Toronto has become a provincial initiative. Why is this so important?
Most often those living on social assistance have to choose between paying their housing costs and buying healthy food. This shouldn't be a
choice but rather a basic human right. Through this public act of solidarity we will be able to raise awareness about hunger in Ontario to
demand an immediate increase of $100 per month for each adult on social assistance to purchase healthy food.
