Baltimore Restaurant Shuts Down For 5 Days To Feed The Homeless Free Food
Source: True Activist
Each year, Baltimore restaurants look forward to restaurant week, a time where the citys food is showcased and businesses are able to get a ton of free advertisement and new customers.
Instead of cashing in like everyone else, Michael Tabrizi, owner of Tabrizis will be closing his business to the general public in order to feed the citys homeless at no cost.
I decided that, after all of the chaos earlier this year, it would be better to do something for the city to unite the people. It isnt about revenue and money right now, weve done restaurant week before and we know the numbers, but right now its more important to promote the welfare of the city and its residents rather than to promote the business, Tabrizi told Baltimore Magazine.
These people dont only suffer from hunger, but also from hopelessness, they feel that they dont have any dignity anymore. We want them to come in and feel like theyre cared for, he added.
To get the food for no cost, Tabrizi has teamed up with local homeless shelters who donate food and time to the cause.
