EasySundays kicked off the new fall season with its next event ‘Simply Brunch’ at the Brussels Info Place, BIP, at Place Royale on October 2nd. And as usual, we followed our modo: “eat seasonally and locally; act globally”

We certainly managed to tease and satisfy your palates with seasonal and local fruits and vegetables, inspired by the award-winning Campaign ‘Manger local et de saison‘ of Bruxelles environnement.

The proceeds of this event went to the Swedish/Tanzanian association Yatima www.yatima.se, active in the Iringa District of southwest Tanzania, in the villages of Matanana, Bumilayinga and Ulole, 650km away from Dar es Salaam.

These villages are largely affected by HIV. Many children are orphan and live under very poor conditions.

Yatima has set up and maintains day-care centers to give children the chance to a childhood without removing them from their social context. For the children the day-care centers mean security, food, shelter and education.

The Yatima project also sustains an organic farm as a means of securing the food supply for its activities.

Thanks to all of you who joined us – it was a great success!

As EasySundays is also about networking, we also gave out flyers and information about EasySundays at the European Job Days Brussels that took place on Saturday 1st October at the Berlaymont-Schuman.

The European Job Day Brussels is a recruitment event where you can meet up to 40 employers and have on the spot interviews for jobs.

It’s also a unique opportunity to access practical information on all aspects of mobility in Europe and to create your own job. Learn more: www.jobdays.eu.
