Market Street Raises More Than $31,000 Through DFW Restaurant Week
Our teams across The United Family know that making a difference in our communities goes far beyond the walls of our stores. Thanks to the generosity of our guests and the dedication of our Market Street team members, this year’s DFW Restaurant Week campaign raised more than $31,000, totaling $31,365.94, to benefit two nonprofit organizations serving North Texas.
Market Street, alongside Audacy, recently presented the funds to the North Texas Food Bank and Lena Pope, with each organization receiving an equal share of the total amount raised by Market Street locations throughout the DFW Metroplex.
During the campaign, Market Street guests had multiple opportunities to join in and give back. At checkout, guests could donate directly to the register or purchase a special DFW Restaurant Week coupon and recipe book, with proceeds benefiting the campaign’s charity partners.
For three decades, DFW Restaurant Week has brought together businesses, restaurants and guests from across the Metroplex in support of local organizations. Over the past 29 years, the campaign has raised nearly $14 million for its charity partners. Participating restaurants also supported the effort by donating a portion of of their sales, while diners could choose to make additional contributions.
“Market Street is proud to continue supporting DFW Restaurant Week and the incredible impact this campaign had across North Texas,” said Robert Bollinger, district manager for The United Family. “It’s a unique opportunity to bring our community together around local restaurants while also supporting organizations doing important work for our neighbors. We’re grateful to play a part in providing these funds to the North Texas Food Bank and Lena Pope Foundation and helping extend their impact throughout the communities we serve.”
This accomplishment is another great example of what can happen when our team members, guests, and communities come together for a common cause. Every conversation at the register, every recipe book purchased, and every donation made helped contribute to the more than $31,000 raised.
To our Market Street team members who helped support and promote the campaign, THANK YOU! Your commitment to our guests and communities continues to make a Positive Impact. And to our generous guests who contributed throughout DFW Restaurant Week, thank you for partnering with us to support organizations doing important work throughout North Texas.
