Ribfest is an event that is brought to you by many volunteers from both Mississauga and Mississauga West Rotary Clubs. It is so very generously supported by our many sponsors and could not succeed without the hundreds of volunteers from neighbouring schools, organizations, and the local community who help out every year. All the money raised goes directly back into your community.
Since the start of Mississauga Ribfest, Rotary has donated more than $1.4 million to the wide variety of organizations. This year we are happy to announce our giving will be themed around 'Community Wellness' initiatives that many people in Mississauga rely on."
