The way you start the year is the way the year will be. And around here, we believe that means starting it with kindness, warmth, and community ❤️
Chili for the Community began on January 1st, 2021, with one simple idea: no one should spend New Year’s Day alone. What started as one pot of chili has grown into a beautiful annual tradition where neighbours come together to share food, laughter, and connection.
This year marks our 5th anniversary, and we’re keeping the spirit alive, one bowl at a time.
👉 How you can take part:
🍲 Bring a pot of chili to share
💧 Donate water, beans, or ingredients
🤝 Volunteer to help serve
❤️ Or just come as you are — everyone’s welcome!
New Year’s Day can be a hard one for many of us. The excitement fades, the quiet settles in. But here, we flip that script. We start the year with friendship, full hearts, and full bowls.
Because if the way we start the year is the way the year will be... let’s start it together.
