Healthy World Cafe, YorIT Social Venture Challenge

The Healthy World Café is a non-profit organization that is developing an innovative, exciting, 21st-century restaurant in downtown York, PA. The idea is simple: provide a healthy meal to the York community, made from local ingredients and served by community volunteers. The menu will have no set pricing; instead guests will pay what they can afford. Some people will pay more, some people will pay less, but everyone gets a great meal. The business model is based on "One World, Everybody Eats" cafe in Salt Lake City. Visit us at www.healthyworldcafe.org to learn more.

This is an incredible idea and it would be a shame if it does not win the YorIT grant. By the way...why are all the comments on here by the same person (sfsimonds)???? Cheesy way to to load the comments area by one person.

Down at the Healthy World Cafe

you can be a tight rope walker

or a miner in a hole.

you can be a policeman

or a gal that's on the dole.

i don't care what clothes you wear

or what letters adorn your name,

'cause when you come inside the healthy world cafe,

you know we're really all the same.

I don't care if you're a liberal, libertarian or in-between, if you celebrate Christmas, Chanukah, Ramadan or Halloween. We all have food in common, so let's concentrate on that, and maybe our civility will grow as we sup together and chat. hey, hey, hey, hey, it's the USA where friends can meet and everybody eats at the healthy world cafe. hey, hey, hey, hey, it's the USA where friends can meet and everybody eats on down at the healthy world cafe
