DENNY'S HELPS PROVIDE OVER 9 MILLION MEALS TO CHILDREN THROUGH NO KID HUNGRY CAMPAIGN
2023年12月8日 - 2:59AM
Denny’s, America’s diner, announced today that it raised $942,000
in 2023 through its annual fundraiser and partnership with No Kid
Hungry. Beginning in October, Denny’s U.S. locations asked guests
to round their checks to the nearest dollar, donate an amount of
their choice at the register or give online during checkout at
Dennys.com. When guests contributed, they received an official
Denny’s and No Kid Hungry supporter pinup to be on display at the
restaurant. The $942,000 can help provide over 9 million meals* to
children across the country.
“This initiative is so meaningful to our brand and our
franchisees. Denny’s founding principle is we love to feed people:
bodies, minds, and souls,” said Kelli Valade, president, and CEO of
Denny’s. “Each year, it is an honor to help our guests contribute
to the worthy cause of feeding children in this country.”
Since 2011, Denny’s has raised over $13.5 million, which will
help ensure every child in America gets the food they need to grow
and thrive. The No Kid Hungry campaign continues to change the
lives of millions of children facing food insecurity.
“We are so thankful for this partnership and commend the entire
Denny’s team for their role in helping us make No Kid Hungry a
reality,” said Allison Shuffield, Managing Director, Corporate
Partnerships at Share Our Strength. “The indispensable support
from our restaurant partners plays a vital role in ensuring that
every child receives three healthy meals a day. In a year where 1
in 5 kids is facing hunger, Denny’s persists in raising crucial
funds and awareness for a challenge we know how to overcome."
Denny’s is committed to giving back to the communities it
serves, and that mission extends beyond its annual No Kid Hungry
fundraiser. Denny’s Mobile Relief Diner travels from coast to coast
feeding people impacted by natural disasters, underserved
communities, the homeless, and veterans. The truck has served more
than 106,000 meals since launching in 2017. Most recently, the
Mobile Relief Diner traveled to Fort Knox, KY, to provide free, hot
meals to service members in honor of Veterans Day.
In addition, through its Hungry for Education® scholarship
program, Denny’s has awarded nearly $2 million in scholarships to
students across the country who present unique, actionable ideas on
ways Denny’s can help end childhood hunger in local communities.
Denny’s restaurants also support national and local charities to
improve the health and well-being of the communities they serve.
