Finally, throughout the month of October and into early November, a few local eateries will donate a portion of sales to PSP. PSP will use all donated funds to provide our AmeriCorps VISTA Members with mileage reimbursement, professional development support, materials, etc. and to support our annual service projects where we provide additional, hands-on support to several amazing local nonprofits. Flyers with participation information and specific dates and times for each eatery are included below and downloadable by clicking here – please share far and wide! If you want to participate but can only make it to a few fundraisers, please prioritize Chipotle and Noodles & Company - we have a participant quota to meet for those two eateries. Chipotle also requires you show a flyer if ordering in store – click here to download the flyer in english and here for the flyer in Spanish.
