The cost of your dinner will go towards funding training, mentoring and employment for migrants in need.

Overview

The next time you go out dining and drinking and get that warm, fuzzy feeling, it might not be because you've had one too many. Hopefully, it'll be because the money you spent on your meal and beverage is being used to support an extremely important cause.

That's one of the aims of Scarf's regular dinners, with the proceeds used to provide migrants with training, mentoring and employment in the hospitality industry. The social enterprise works to help refugees, asylum seekers and recent migrants find work by raising awareness and funding barriers to employment. To date, 181 young people have been supported through this program.

The next series will run on Tuesdays between September 25 and November 20 at CBD cafe-restaurant Higher Ground. Each dinner features a two-course set menu for $45 a head, complete with some of the restaurant's best dishes, like its ceviche with green tomato gazpacho and 12-hour oyster blade steak. Of course, it'll all be served in Higher Ground's impressive high-ceilinged space, which is a pretty special experience in itself.
