Funds raised support No Kid Hungry’s initiative to end childhood hunger in America

(Charlotte, N.C.)--- One in six children struggles with hunger in America. This past September, Salsarita’s Fresh Mexican Grill, joined thousands of restaurants nationwide to support the No Kid Hungry campaign by raising funds in their restaurants. For the entire month of September, 46 Salsarita’s restaurants and their guests donated $2.00 online or in the restaurant totaling $19,046.

Guests who donated online were rewarded with free Salsarita’s or discounted menu items. For in-restaurant donations, guests were given a scratch-off card to redeem special offers, as well.

The No Kid Hungry campaign seeks to end childhood hunger in America by connecting children with the healthy food they need, every day. Funds raised through Salsarita’s September promotion will help spread awareness about child hunger in the U.S.; create public-private partnerships that align kids with the resources they need; support nutrition programs like School Breakfast and Summer Meals; and educate kids and their families on how to cook healthy meals with limited resources. Salsarita’s is proud to support No Kid Hungry this year in restaurants across the nation, and looks forward to expanding their participation even further in the years to come.

“We’re so thrilled to have played a role is contributing to No Kid Hungry,” said Salsarita’s Fresh Mexican Grill CEO Phil Friedman. “This will help ensure that every child in America has access to the nutritious food they need, every day.”
