Parker’s Kitchen recently raised $360,000 to support injured local veterans in Georgia and South Carolina through a special partnership with Wounded Warrior Project, per a press release sent to NACS. The company said it matched 25% of all customer donations to amplify the impact.
The company is also kicking off a new round-up campaign through October 31 to benefit Parker’s House for Women in Savannah, Georgia, a residential facility that is operated by Union Mission and provides emergency housing, counseling, and comprehensive services for women experiencing homelessness.
And in South Carolina, proceeds from the Parker’s Kitchen round-up campaign in Charleston will be donated to Roper St. Francis Healthcare to provide healthcare for uninsured and underinsured residents across the Charleston area. The company will match 25% of all customer donations.
“When you shop at Parker’s Kitchen, you know your money is staying local and making a positive impact by supporting incredible nonprofit organizations like the Parker’s House for Women and Roper St. Francis Healthcare,” said Parker’s Kitchen Founder and Executive Chairman Greg Parker. “We love giving back to the community and invite customers to join us by rounding up their transactions to the nearest dollar to help us make positive change across the region.”
Last year, the company made a $5 million donation to provide healthcare to uninsured and underinsured patients at Roper/St. Francis Healthcare in Charleston, South Carolina.
