We
receive daily requests for donations, highlighting the increasing needs
of so many worthy causes. To better manage these requests, we have implemented
a standard procedure for all charitable donation requests. If you are
requesting a donation, we ask that you fill out the request
for donation form (click here for form). Please note that
we require your submission no later than 30 days prior to your event
date. Unfortunately, we are not able to grant requests with less than
30 days notice.
Your
request for donation form must be hand-delivered to
us for consideration (e-mailed submissions or mailed submissions
will not be accepted), at least 30 days prior to the date
of your event. Our business hours are:
monday
to friday - 10 am - 7 pm
saturday - 10 am - 5 pm
sunday - closed
Request
for donation forms which are received with 30 days or more notice are
eligible for a lottery-style drawing. The winning recipients will be
notified via e-mail or with a phone call.
Each
donation will be for a gourmet gift basket or gift certificate. We do
not donate our catering services or fresh or frozen food.
Best
wishes for a successful fundraising event!
