‘A better place’ for the ‘most good’

Today you can celebrate National Salvation Army Week at our Dine to Donate at Max & Erma’s at 5899 E. 86th Street. When you bring in this flyer from 11a-8p, your server will credit us with 20% of your purchase. You were planning on eating today anyway, right? Why not choose to put those lunch and dinner dollars to work for your neighbors in need? The proceeds will help us provide services like food and utility assistance, shelter to the homeless, refuge for abused women and children, after school and senior programs and emergency disaster services. (Thanks to  Larissa and all the folks at Max & Erma’s for supporting us through this event!)

And don’t forget, the fun’s not over yet. Tomorrow marks the end of our National Salvation Army Week events, but we’re going out with a bang! Join us for ‘Eat Outside the Box’, our picnic to end homelessness tomorrow from 10a-2p at Veteran’s Memorial Plaza at Meridian & Michigan Streets in downtown Indy. Just $5 gets you a boxed lunch of a hot dog or hamburger, chips and a drink. Bring a little extra to purchase a homemade dessert from our volunteers – Evelyn’s fudge is AMAZING! Enjoy live music, throw a game of cornhole and check out our partners’ tables. And there’s still time to be a booth sponsor – just $50 to reach about 500 prospects! Call Kristen at 224-1019.

Eat bbq, throw a game

What’s a picnic without a game of cornhole? Thanks to a generous donation from Indy Custom Cornhole, we’ll have 2 cornhole sets ready for players at next Friday’s ‘Eat Outside the Box’ picnic to end homelessness. So, gather up a group of co-workers and head on down to Veteran’s Memorial Plaza at Meridian and Michigan and put those lunch dollars to work for a good cause – homeless women and kids. Enjoy some freshly grilled hot dogs and hamburgers from All-American Picnic, chips from GFS and a ice cold water from Noodles and Company and then throw a game of cornhole before heading back to the office.

Booth space is still available for only $50. Interested? Go here to learn more or give Kristen a call at 224-1019.
