An award–winning social enterprise, Potluck Café Society (a registered charity) owns and operates Potluck Café & Catering, a thriving business that employs neighbourhood residents and provides up to twenty-five percent of the operating revenue required to run the Society’s ongoing programs.

“The essence of Rotary will likely continue to be as undefinable as life itself. Therefore, we cannot hope for many results from definitions of Rotary but must rely on Rotarians acquiring a working knowledge of the appropriate activities which they are expected to perform, and then urge them to carry those activities into practice in their daily lives.” ~ Guy Gundaker Rotary Club of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA 1917 Rotary convention
