BUBBA’S ROADHOUSE & SALOON HELPS ONGOING HURRICANE KATRINA RECOVERY BY PARTICIPATING IN SHARE OUR STRENGTH’S RESTAURANTS FOR RELIEF 2, PRESENTED BY AMERICAN EXPRESS
Dining out at Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon on August 29th Helps Share Our Strength’s Ongoing Hurricane Recovery Efforts
Cape Coral, Fl – August 3rd – On Tuesday, August 29th, the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon will raise funds for Share Our Strength’s Restaurants for Relief 2, presented by American Express. This second annual nationwide dine-out program helps Share Our Strength, one of the nation’s leading organizations working to end childhood hunger, with its ongoing hurricane recovery efforts in the Gulf Coast region. Diners across the country will enjoy food and drink at thousands of participating restaurants and support this good cause. Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon is contributing 10% of the Total Sales for August 29, 2006 to Share Our Strength’s hurricane recovery efforts.
As part of its efforts to end childhood hunger in America, Share Our Strength continues to help families on the Gulf Coast. By dining out at Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon, customers can help rebuild school cafeterias, open summer meal programs, provide assistance for affected restaurant workers, and more.
Hurricane recovery along the Gulf Coast continues to be a long road. There are still hundreds of thousands of displaced people who cannot return home and need help rebuilding their lives and livelihoods. For as long as it takes, Share Our Strength will support the battered communities in the Gulf Coast region.
“We are proud to be part of the on-going efforts to help our neighbors along the Gulf Coast as they rebuild their community,” said Jay Johnson, Owner of Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon. “It is important that we remember that the rebuilding process is still continuing and will take years to complete. By dining with us on August 29th, we are giving our customers an easy way to contribute to these efforts.”
“Rebuilding the Gulf Coast is taking much more than a single year, and Share Our Strength is committed to being engaged on the ground -- to bear witness, to go, to feel, to do and to tell,” said Bill Shore, Founder and Executive Director of Share Our Strength. “We know that the most important strength Americans can share is their support of those in need. Dining out on August 29th at Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon for Restaurants for Relief 2 is an easy way to help our neighbors along the battered Gulf Coast which continues to recover.”
“American Express is committed to the communities where our employees and customers live and work. Our long-standing partnership with Share Our Strength is an important example of this commitment,” said Curtis Wilson, Vice President and General Manager, Restaurant Industries for American Express Establishment Services. “We believe strongly that Restaurants for Relief 2 will be a powerful vehicle for helping the people of the Gulf Coast recover.”
This year, Share Our Strength is working in partnership with Food Network and the National Restaurant Association to bring Share Our Strength’s Restaurants for Relief 2, presented by American Express to restaurants and diners across America.
Share Our Strength raised more than $1.2 million from the first Restaurants for Relief dine-out program and other hurricane recovery efforts. As a result, they provided critical support to schools, community kitchens, feeding programs, farmers’ markets, FEMA trailer parks and efforts to aid restaurant and hospitality workers.
