rMark is a platform that allows first year Ryerson University interior design students to join in on the conversation about design activism, pro bono design, food security and social innovation.

This semester, our students designed and hand-crafted wooden kitchen objects with the goal of raising funds for The Stop Community Food Centre. 

Selected objects are being displayed at the Ryerson School of Interior Design Year-end Show from April 23 - 26 and may be purchased until May 21st for a donation to our campaign.

A minimum donation of $50.00 CAD will allow you to select a kitchen object from our list of perks. Visit our gallery page to see our beautiful utensils or come to our show.

Our goal is to raise $1,500.00.  100% of the proceeds go to support The Stop's critical and innovative anti-poverty and anti-hunger programs.

Make a donation today or come to the RSID Year End Show and support a worthy cause and show us how you will make your mark on design!
