Garbanzo Mediterranean Grill is celebrating Garbanzo Bean Day this week by hosting fundraisers for its non-profit partner FIRST DESCENTS and giving freebies to its customers. The Colorado-based fast casual concept is extending the Oct. 21 observance through Oct. 22; all California, Colorado, Maryland, New Jersey and Texas locations are participating in the promotion. Activities include:
In-Store Fundraiser
Through today, Garbanzo guests can donate $1 or more at the register to FIRST DESCENTS and receive 10 percent off their meal.
Fan Appreciation Day
Garbanzo is holding "Fan Appreciate Day" on Oct. 22 on its corporate Facebook page, which consists of food and prize giveaways from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. MDT. Fans must register in order to be eligible to win.
Also part of the eight-hour event are live Facebook "chats" with the brand's founder, Alon Mor, and representatives from FIRST DESCENTS.
Guests are also encouraged to donate to FIRST DESCENTS via the nonprofit's website, and Garbanzo will match all donations totaling up to $2,000 and send each donor a buy one entrée, get one entrée free coupon.
"Our fans and nonprofit partners mean the world to us, and Garbanzo Bean Day is the perfect time to celebrate them," Mor said. "We are loking forward to four days of giving and fundraising, which should be a win-win for all involved."
