How It Works
Contact us so we can learn more about your group and we’ll work with you to schedule an available weekday that’s designated just for your non-profit organization.
Promote the event and date to your group, family, friends, ANYONE actually, we’ll help with templates, and we’ll promote on our social media accounts as well.
On the day of the event, 10% of ALL food and beverage sales that we take in during that day will be donated to your group. This includes take-out orders, so if some people want to support but don’t feel comfortable dining out just yet, no problem...they can place a take-out order on our website or by calling the restaurant and still have those sales count. (What’s NOT included towards the 10% donation is Connecticut sales tax, Tip/Gratuity, pre-scheduled private parties/events, gift card purchases, and any sales through a third-party app like Uber Eats or Grubhub.)
Within 1 week after your event date we’ll have a check cut to your group for the 10% donation.
