A local restaurant owner is doing his part in supporting front-line workers and the community as much as possible during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We just started an initiative to donate 10 per cent of every take-out order and 100 per cent of tips directly to the London Food Bank,” Brad Heslop with the Early Riser Cafe in north London told 980 CFPL Sunday. “They rely on larger chain restaurants to access the washrooms, and that’s just really not possible at the moment.” The restaurant owner says his ideas were implemented around Thursday or Friday last week.
Within these three to four days, he says $400 were collected through tips and take-out orders, which will all go towards the food bank.
