This Montreal restaurant serves free food to the homeless during the holidays
This Montreal restaurant wants to make sure no one goes hungry over the holidays.
Raji Abi-Rached, the owner of Amir restaurant at the Place Versailles shopping centre, is offering free meals to the homeless during the holidays.
Abi-Rached and his staff usually hand out free food to the homeless people that hang around the mall or near the restaurant.
On the weekend, Abi-Rached took to Twitter to spread the word about helping those in need.
He replied to a tweet from Mayor Valérie Plante to explain how his restaurant was giving back.
Bonjour Madame Plante, je suis propriétaire du restaurant Amir à la place Versailles et nous offrons un repas gratuit pour les sans abris du coin jusqu’à Noël. Si jamais vous en voyez quelques uns, vous pouvez les amener et on les invites 😊 bonne journée
