Heartspring, Local Restaurants Team Up For Giving Tuesday

WICHITA, Kan.—To celebrate Giving Tuesday, Heartspring is teaming up with Sasnak restaurants, the Good Egg, HomeGrown and Wichita Carlos O’Kelly’s locations. These restaurants will give 10 percent of all sales on Giving Tuesday, which is November 28, to Heartspring.

 

“We’re excited for this opportunity to help out a great organization in our community,” Jon Rolph, president of Sasnak, said. “By giving back on Giving Tuesday, we are creating opportunity for children with special needs and their families.”

 

Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving. Non-profit organizations and their supporters join to raise funds and awareness for causes they care about. Heartspring’s goal is to raise $8,000 this year. Funds raised will go to the area of greatest need unless otherwise specified by the donor.

 

“We’re grateful for our local community partners,” Stacie Williamson, Heartspring Director of Development, said. “Giving Tuesday is just one day, but the impact we’re making lasts much longer than that. Every dollar raised has an effect on the children we serve and our organization as a whole.”
