Mission Restaurants: Join Food for Thought!

Join our 2^nd annual Food for Thought, an annual event that raises funds to benefit Mission Graduates. We are a nonprofit organization that increases the number of youth from San Francisco’s Mission District who are prepared for and complete a college education.

The concept of Food for Thought is simple:

o Your restaurant, along with others from the Mission District, commit to contributing a portion of your sales on one night — Wednesday, November 10, 2010– to help pave the way to college for young people who live in your community.

o Mission Graduates commits to promoting restaurants through an extensive promotional campaign and to filling seats and increasing revenue at your restaurant on November 10.

This event gives your restaurant increased media exposure; it increases sales on a Wednesday night, introduces your food to new customers, and is an easy way to demonstrate your commitment to youth in the Mission.
