Over the last 10 weeks, The Now Crowd have been driving action within their organisations focusing on Social Impact. The initiatives have ranged from improving workplace diversity, to carrying out a “Random Acts of Kindness” month and exploring community involvement initiatives!

Celebrations are definitely in order so please join us at Everybody Eats on Monday 29 April for the Social Impact Sprint wrap up dinner.

Everybody Eats is a not for profit; pay as you feel dining concept which aims to be part of solving three huge problems we have in NZ; food waste, food poverty, and social isolation. Every Monday night about 270 people gather at St Kevin’s Arcade and volunteers serve a three-course meal to customers from all walks of life, who pay as they feel.

Even if you haven’t been able to take part in this Sprint, this is a great opportunity for you to learn about what others have done over a delicious meal supporting a worthy cause!

“Food really is the most amazing tool we have for bringing people together. We’ve realised that by treating everyone equally, with dignity and respect, that each week we are slowly having an impact on people socially, as they begin to trust those they share their meal with. I’ve seen people who have lived on the streets for decades sitting barefoot opposite lawyers in suits, engaging in meaningful conversations over a bowl of hot soup.” — Nick Loosley, Everybody Eats Founder
