Last tax season, H&R Block Canada began working with Breakfast for Learning in Regina, Victoria and Windsor to raise funds for the charity as part of our Block Builders program. And we reached our goal of raising $10,000.
This season, H&R Block is expanding our partnership with Breakfast for Learning to include all of our offices in the fundraising initiative. H&R Block tax professionals will ask clients to donate a minimum of $5 to Breakfast for Learning. For every client donation, H&R Block Canada will donate $5 to BFL. Every $10 donation will feed one child a breakfast and a snack in a school program for one week.
Our goal is to raise $20,000 this tax season.
The funds will be used to support BFL in the achievement of their mission to help educate and empower communities to start and sustain quality child nutrition programs that feed hungry children and provide essential nutrition education, ultimately giving children the best chance for success in life. Donations can be made at any H&R Block office until April 30th with the opportunity to receive a tax receipt for your 2013 tax return.
