November 9-December 24, 2009: Support Streetsmart


Streetsmart supplies grants to small, grassroots organisations that are combatting homelessness. In the six weeks leading up to Christmas, you can help Streetsmart help these organisations help the homeless (phew!) while dining out at some of Melbourne's great restaurants.

Where?
You can check out a full list of participating restaurants, Australia-wide, at the Streetsmart website. We've been to a few of them before! Check out our reviews of Abla's, Anada, Birdman Eating, Cumulus Inc, Ezard, Gingerboy, Laksa Me, Misuzu's, Oskar, Oyster Little Bourke, Red Spice Road, The Commoner, and The Town Hall Hotel.

How?
Leave a donation when you pay your bill at a participating restaurant. As the Streetsmart logo above hints, as little as $2 can make a difference! You can also make direct donations to Streetsmart through ourcommunity.com.au. Spread the word via Facebook, Twitter, your blog or by (gasp!) speaking directly, in person, to your friends, family and coworkers.

We plan to visit and review a few Streetsmart restaurants during the campaign. We hope you can find a way to pitch in too!
