Sa-hali Secondary Grade 12 Grads and Quizno’s Subs partner for EAT OUT FOR EDUCATION. A group of Sa-hali Secondary Grade 12 Grads is partnering with Quizno’s Subs for EAT OUT FOR EDUCATION, a fund raiser to benefit FREE THE CHILDREN, the largest international network of children helping children through education. All proceeds will be used to purchase school kits for disadvantaged children in a developing country, giving them the opportunity to attend school and break the cycle of illiteracy and poverty. Quizno’s Subs is donating the profits from every sale to this project.

EAT OUT FOR EDUCATION will take place all day, on Saturday, March 8th at both Quizno’s Sub locations in Kamloops:

Aberdeen Mall
72 – 1135 Hillside Drive
Tel: 250-828-2875

Lansdowne Village
1K – 450 Lansdowne Street
Tel: 250-828-1855

“EAT OUT FOR EDUCATION is a tangible expression of our gratitude for our primary and secondary education. We aim to pay it forward to children who are denied education for lack of school supplies.

The United Nation Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has shown that just three years of basic education makes a significant difference in … health care knowledge and in a family’s income. In many countries throughout the world, if a child appears at the school’s doorstep without basic educational supplies, he or she is turned away.

We are committed to opening the doors of education for other children just as they were opened for us.”
