It’s never been so easy — or delicious — to do some good.

This holiday season if you treat yourself, you can pay it forward to help BC’s restaurant owners and kids cross the finish line on this challenging year.

How? Like most of life’s successes, it starts with a good breakfast.

BC’s dairy farmers are partnering with restaurants across the province for the Wake Up to the Best campaign in support of Breakfast Club of Canada. All you have to do is take-out or dine-in at a participating restaurant, and BC Dairy will take care of the rest.

“Supporting the most vulnerable members of our local communities with healthy, nutritious food is a cause that BC’s dairy farmers are extremely passionate about,” says Jeremy Dunn, General Manager of BC Dairy Association. “It’s something that farmers value every year, but in 2020 we recognize it’s more important than ever.”

Support local kids and local restaurants

Just find a participating restaurant by visiting breakfastclubcanada.org/wakeup, order one of the featured breakfast items for dine-in or take-out, and BC Dairy will donate a meal to Breakfast Club of Canada on your behalf.

You’ll be helping provide healthy breakfasts to children across Canada by supporting Breakfast Club of Canada. You’ll also be supporting local restaurants through the extended hardships of the COVID-19 pandemic, by bringing in extra business. And you’ll be helping yourself, fuelling your body with a delicious breakfast — complete with nutritious dairy products from BC farmers.

“Cookie’s Grill is excited to be partnering with BC’s dairy farmers in supporting Breakfast Club of Canada. As a community leader, we are honoured that we were chosen to help out such a worthy cause, and are happy to help our community in any way possible,” says Colleen Connoly, owner of Cookie’s Grill.

BC’s dairy farmers hope to raise $50,000 for Breakfast Club through the Wake Up to the Best campaign, and the success depends on you! Order one of the special breakfast items at a participating restaurant, or donate directly at breakfastclubcanada.org/wakeup.

“For the promotion we are featuring two of our menu items: Ploughman’s Skillet and Cinnamon Bun Pancake Combo. Both of these items feature BC dairy products like cheddar cheese, sour cream and cream cheese,” Connoly says.

Wake Up to the Best by ordering the Ploughman’s Skillet or Cinnamon Bun Pancake Combo at Cookie’s Grill, A-3 44335 Yale Rd. in Chilliwack, or check out one of the other dining options in the Lower Mainland listed at breakfastclubcanada.org/wakeup.
