CONCEPT AND CHALLENGE

The Grand Kettle by La Tablée des Chefs is an exciting and charitable event that aims to create 84,000 bags of ready-to-cook soup,
which will then be distributed to Food banks of Quebec. 

To make this happen, you are invited to form a team of 6 people. On the day of the challenge, teams will have to give it their all to prepare everything in one hour.  Each team must raise a minimum of $1,800, or $300 per participant.

All donations collected through registrations ($1,800 per team) will go to support our Solidarity Soups program, which provides soup to elementary school students in disadvantaged areas.  

Donors will receive a charitable tax receipt for any donation over $20.
