Charity work

At Brady's, we believe that it is our responsibility to give back to our community. We regularly hold fundraisers and host special events to support the individuals and groups who are in need.

Brady's Donates to Cambridge Self-Help Food Bank

In March 2016, the Be a Good Egg social media campaign asked people to vote for their favourite food bank. The Cambridge Self-Help Food Bank ended up coming third in the province, meaning they were going to receive $200 of meat from the campaign organizers. But Ontario Meat & Poultry and Brady's decided to match and surpass that amount! We donated 68 lbs of beef brisket, 80 lbs of ground turkey, and 300 lbs of potatoes, a total of $1100!

For more information and photos, see the Cambridge Self-Help Food Bank's Facebook post.

Brady's donates natural ground beef to Out of the Cold program

Brady's has sent our first batch of natural, drug-free PEI ground beef to the Out of the Cold program at First United Church in Waterloo.

Bradys will be accepting donations of warm clothing, hats, hoods and used jackets in our donation box under our window.

We raised $770 for the St. Jacobs Farmers' Market Relief Fund

Brady's would like to thank everyone who donated to the St. Jacobs Farmers' Market Relief Fund. Together we raised $770 at our store!

In the early morning of September 2nd, 2013, the main building of the St. Jacobs Farmers' Market was destroyed by a fire destroying the stalls of many market vendors including Brady's Meat & Deli.

Brady's was fortunate enough to have a retail location, but many of the other vendors in the building did not. The Kitchener and Waterloo Community Foundation has set up a St. Jacobs Farmers' Market Vendor Relief Fund. Brady's does not need any of the relief funding, but we were accepting donations at our store to help the other vendors whose only location was in the market building.
