HOLLAND, MI (WHTC-AM/FM) – The Michigan franchise of Noodles & Company has joined in the fight to end childhood hunger.
Noodles and Company has teamed up with No Kid Hungry® at their 21 locations, including Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Holland, Lansing and Metro Detroit. Right now through October 3, a $2 donation will help supply meals to kids in need and guests will receive a coupon for a free Shareable item to enjoy on their next visit.
Michael Endres is Marketing Director and says they believe in supporting their communities.
“I think this is a good way for us to get a national reach with a national program. I think $2 is something that most families that come into our restaurant can afford. It’s a nice number to help out. Each one of those two dollar donations supplies 20 meals to kids in need. That’s quite a bit.”
Studies by No Kid Hungry® indicate that one in six kids experiences hunger on a regular basis and that 95 percent of teachers believe hunger impacts their students’ ability to succeed. In addition, 77 percent of teachers directly correlate hunger with poor academic performance.
Coupons for the free Shareable item are valid through Oct. 17, 2017 and are good for any size Korean BBQ Meatballs, Cheesy Garlic Bread or Potstickers. The coupon cannot be combined with any other offer.
Pasta Per Trio operates the Noodles & Company location on James Street in Holland. You can donate online too.
Pasta Per Trio is the Michigan franchisee of Noodles & Company. Pasta Per Trio employs 550 people at 21 locations, including Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Holland, Lansing and Metro Detroit. Founded in 2004 by a group of investors in Madison, Wisconsin, the first location in Michigan opened in July 2005.
