Ticket Information

It's easy $35 per ticket -- "You party for a night; they eat for a week."

We’ve tied our main pricing structure to a statistic that really hit home for us. According to the Daily Bread's “Fighting Hunger: Who’s Hungry. 2010 Profile of Hunger in the GTA”, the median monthly household income of GTA food bank users is a mere $1,000. The same report explained that the average monthly rent (market only) is $750 and the average monthly utilities bill is around $120.

Think about that. According to our math, that leaves $130 per month or about $32.50 per week to live on, prior to any social assistance.

Could you live on $32.50 a week?

That reasonates for us. So that’s how the ticket prices came to be...and because we are for Daily Bread Food Bank, we rounded up to $35/ticket. All to help the Daily Bread Food Bank feed a household for a week*. If you’re able to spend a little more, you help feed a Toronto-area household a little longer. The money you give us directly impacts the lives of your fellow Torontonians. Please, give as much as you possibly can by donating on the HoHoTO site.

*Our numbers are approximate and are intended to give you a tangible sense of the good you're doing by supporting HoHoTO & the Daily Bread Food Bank.
