St-Hubert to deliver 10,000 chicken meals and 2,000 pot pies to Quebecers in need
One of Quebec’s favourite rotisserie chicken franchises is joining the mutual aid and generosity movement by launching a “comfort food” campaign.
Officially dubbed “Deliver it forward,” St-Hubert will be delivering 100 meals free of charge to 100 Quebecers in need.
Through the restaurant’s Facebook page (as of April 2), St-Hubert is inviting customers to submit names of people “who deserve a St-Hubert meal.”
The initiative will last for 100 days during which a total of 10,000 meals will be dished out. “The purpose of this project is to break people’s isolation, and above all, to thank citizens who set themselves apart in these difficult times,” the restaurant said in a release.

“The initiatives announced today will feed people, but above all, do them good. People often tell us that St Hubert provides comfort food. It is with this in mind that we had the idea of delivering comfort to thousands of people, especially those who set themselves apart through their involvement in society,” Richard Scofield, president of the St-Hubert Group, said.
