DONATE FOR TURKEY-SYRIA RELIEF

On 6 February 2023, the Kahramanmaras earthquake struck Turkey and Syria, leaving destruction and devastation in its wake throughout the region. The 7.8 magnitude earthquake has since left more than 40,000 dead and thousands more are deeply impacted by the ripples of destruction. The natural disaster has caused a humanitarian crisis, one which continues to develop, and we are still learning the totality of impact on the region. 

While we do not have a strong connection to the region through our work, we are connected through our humanity, and we choose to stand in solidarity with those affected. Spearheading the efforts to raise $50,000HKD, Chefs Teya Mikhael and Palash Mitra are joining hands for a one-off dinner, Feast for A Cause, at our Team Canteen. On Monday 20 February, we will open to the public for the first time to share in a warm meal lovingly prepared by the two powerhouse chefs, at a suggested donation of $500HKD per guest, with all proceeds raised on the evening going towards the relief efforts in the region. 

While only a drop in the bucket, it is a concrete first step towards making an impact. It is an opportunity to take action on the ground in Hong Kong that will have a real-world impact on their communities back in Turkey and Syria. With aid in the region under scrutiny, millions of survivors struggling to find food and shelter from the bitter cold and the death toll rising as Emergency Responders continue rescue efforts, every donation as some 26 million people across the two regions look for assistance counts. 

We are currently liaising with contacts on the ground to decide on the best and most meaningful channels to send funds. Donations will benefit organisations that can maximise their existing on–the-ground networks to deliver aid quickly and efficiently to those affected. These will be announced via social media @blacksheeprestaurants.  

Learn more via www.blacksheeprestaurants.com/happenings. Join us on Monday 20 February and donate to the relief efforts. Reservations can be made from 6pm here, walk-ins welcome and online donations accepted for those who cannot attend.
