Meet our #QueenEastEats Community Supporter: Outline Financial

We’re pleased  to thank Outline Financial, one of our Queen East Eats Community Supporters!

Jason Friesen of Outline Financial shared: “Since moving into the neighbourhood in 2015, we’ve gotten to know many people who live and work in the area and like to give back any way we can. Anything that brings more visitors into the area bars, pubs, restaurants and breweries benefits the community as a whole. I really like how this area has become a destination. The selection of options for food and drink are pretty great in the area and we want to see it thrive.”

Outline Financial have been focused on providing great mortgage and insurance solutions while giving back any way they can. They are pleased to support Queen East Eats to help bring more visitors into the area’s bars, pubs, restaurants and breweries, and benefit the community as a whole. 

We were happy to take this opportunity to catch up with Jason and help share his story:
