It has been over a week since the disaster in Haiti. It is clear that numbers showing over 200,000 perished and over tens of thousands lost and unaccounted for, there is one thing very clear…Haiti needs us. We live in such a beautiful country that not only consists of sturdy buildings but compassionate people. The bottom line is that we are all very lucky to live in such a country. You may be thinking that you’re not the type of person that is compassionate or gives back to organizations such as the ones helping out in Haiti, but let me tell you…here is your chance.
If you like a good hamburger, good Mexican food or Asian food, or just like a good beer or Margarita, you have an opportunity to give back with no effort at all. All you have to do is show up at one of the three restaurants below and do what you probably do best: Socialize and enjoy good food and drinks. Now I want you to think of something here. The three restaurants below aren’t giving 50% of the profits away to organizations helping out Haiti. They are giving 50% of the sales. Many companies talk about giving profits, but there is a big difference. I want you to understand that 50% of the money given to one of these 3 restaurants is directly going to effect the life of somebody in need, or if you want to go deeper, it is going to help someone properly bury their loved one.
