The ONWARDS Initiative
Through this program, we dedicate a percentage of Knife Shift profits to projects led by non-profit organizations working to improve the food system and create a resilient culinary arts industry.
How This Works
Step 1: Identify Partners/Projects
We look for organizations aligned with the causes we support.
After making contact with a group, we discuss their projects and where a donation may be able to help.
Step 2: Feature Group/Project
We provide information about the group(s) we are currently supporting and donating to on our social media channels and on this page.
Step 3: Raise Funds
We designate a time frame when we collect funds to allocate toward the organization's efforts.
Alternatively, we may establish a minimum donation amount and work toward that goal.
Step 4: Reporting
We collect information about each donation campaign we run.
This information is available upon request and at year-end we compile figures into a report detailing the Initiative's contributions.
