How eating lots of waffles can help you support Cincinnati Pride this June
Looking to support the LGBTQ+ community this Pride Month? Buy a waffle!
Taste of Belgium, the Cincinnati-based eatery founded by native Belgian Jean-Francois Flechet in 2007, is donating a portion of its waffle sales to Cincinnati Pride during the month of June.
'At Taste of Belgium, we aim to provide an inclusive environment where our people can grow and thrive, and we've always celebrated authenticity and individuality. That's why this partnership with Cincinnati Pride means so much to us,' Flechet said in a press release.
'This is about more than food; it's about community, inclusion and acceptance,' he continued.
'They fully support our mission and share our belief that authenticity, inclusion and community should be at the heart of everything we do," Cincinnati Pride Director of Development Jake Hitch said about Taste of Belgium. "This campaign is a celebration of those shared values."
The restaurant, which has locations in Over-the-Rhine, The Banks, Rookwood and Findlay Market, is also offering special packs of its signature Belgian waffles called Love Packs. The packs will be available for purchase in person and online for $13 per pack, with $2 from each sale going toward Cincinnati Pride, the volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to hosting the Pride festival and parade every year.
Each Love Pack includes traditional, lemon poppyseed, red velvet and birthday cake waffles.
Cincinnati's Pride festival and parade take place downtown Saturday, June 28. However, there are events all throughout the month.
