Dine Out at bd's Mongolian Grill in September and Help End Childhood Hunger

CLEVELAND, Ohio. (September 4, 2014) —This September, bd’s Mongolian Grill is joining thousands of restaurants nationwide to support Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry® campaign by raising funds in their restaurants.

On September 9, 2014 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. participating bd’s Mongolian Grill restaurants nationwide will donate 20 percent from every check to No Kid Hungry when a guest mentions “TwEAT Out Day” or “No Kid Hungry.”

Additionally throughout the month of September, bd’s Mongolian Grill corporate locations will donate 25 cents to No Kid Hungry from every Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake purchase. Participating franchise locations have the ability to select their own dessert to feature during this time period with 25 cents from every one of those purchases also benefitting No Kid Hungry. No Kid Hungry T-shirts and Buffs will also be available at select locations for purchase with all proceeds going to No Kid Hungry.

“In America, 1 in 5 children struggle with hunger, and that is an extremely unsettling static to swallow,” said Joe Phraner, President and COO of bd’s Mongolian Grill. “With the help of our guests, we hope to make a difference.”

In 2013, nearly 9,000 restaurants raised $7.5 million for the No Kid Hungry campaign. No Kid Hungry funds are used to raise awareness about child hunger in the U.S., create public-private partnerships that align kids with the resources they need, support nutrition programs like School Breakfast and Summer Meals, and educate kids and their families on how to cook healthy meals with limited resources.
