a community built on service • Vision is to be the industry’s charity of choice, providing financial support for individuals within the hospitality community who are coping with extraordinary costs arising from a serious health or medical crisis.

working together to help our own mission is to offer financial assistance, beyond traditional medical benefits and insurances, to individuals within the hospitality community in their times of critical health or medical need. As well, we are committed to supporting the industry’s next generation by providing scholarships and bursaries to selected students enrolled in hospitality and culinary programs at partner schools in BC.

OCTOBER 2012 THANKSGIVING TO HALLOWEEN 2011 - YEAR ONE , GENERATED $120,00 2012 – GOAL - $200,000

• The campaign presents an opportunity to everybody involved in the Industry to contribute to their own Hospitality Industry “charity”. • Individuals or teams can participate. Teams can represent Hotels, Pubs, Restaurants, Industry suppliers or any other establishment or group of like minded individuals.

• During the campaign each team fundraises for the BCHF. • The way the fundraising is done is left to the team but the concept is that the funds are contributed by members of the industry. Ideas that work and are easy are - “ toonie or loose change drives”, 50/50 draws and raffles.

• Teams and individuals are encouraged to register on line at www.TipOutToHelp.com • This web site provides the opportunity for people to send personalised e-mails to colleagues, friends and family requesting support for their fundraising efforts. • At the end of the campaign each team submits their funds to the BCHF and the totals raised will appear on the on line “scoreboard”.
