Quote Marks Left Oftentimes, young people can find themselves in disadvantaged or even dangerous situations through no fault of their own, and it's vital to have an organisation such as The Benjamin Foundation offering a lifeline to these kids. Although the school holidays would normally be the best time for business in our cafe, we'd like to dedicate the final day of the Christmas school holidays towards supporting the Foundation. We hope the money raised from this event to produce a real positive outcome for youths in the future.
