Qdoba Mexican Grill Donates $2,000 To Food Bank Of The Rockies
Qdoba Mexican Grill donated $2,000 to the Food Bank of the Rockies (FBR) during its annual franchise business update meeting in Denver on May 3. Qdoba kicked off the annual meeting with a golf tournament, where Qdoba franchisees and vendors participated in the event to help raise money for the local charity.
"It is only through partnership that hunger can be alleviated in our community. Thanks to Qdoba Mexican Grill, Food Bank of the Rockies will be able to provide 10,000 meals to people in need through our member agencies," said Kevin Seggelke, Food Bank president and CEO.
The Food Bank of the Rockies was founded in 1978 and serves 900 hunger-relief programs in northern Colorado and Wyoming. Every dollar contributed to the Food Bank provides five meals to the hungry through participating agencies. Last year, the Food Bank distributed 16 million pounds of food that provided 34,000 meals each day to needy children, seniors and families. FBR is a member of the largest domestic charitable hunger-relief organization, America's Second Harvest The Nation's Food Bank Network. Visit www.foodbankrockies.org for additional information.
