Last year, our annual Caring for Kids campaign reached a huge milestone: Over ten million dollars raised for local children’s hospitals since the start of our campaign in 1979. This year, we’re aiming to keep that total growing through “One Day, One Dollar”, a day when all our restaurants will come together in an effort to raise $10,000 IN ONE DAY for those hospitals.

So mark your calendars for Saturday, December 2 because we need YOU in order to make our goal a reality! How can you help? Simply add $1 (or more!) to your check when you visit on that day.

Your donation will go directly to our campaign, which benefits the following pediatric hospitals and medical centers:

• Akron Children’s Hospital
• Akron Children’s Hospital of the Mahoning Valley
• Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
• Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh
• Four Diamonds Fun at Penn State Hershey Medical Center
• Geisinger Health System
• Indiana Regional Medical Center
• John Hopkins Children’s Center
• Penn Highlands Healthcare
• Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital
• Saint Vincent Health System
• West Virginia University Children’s Hospital

To help us make the biggest impact possible on December 2, our juice supplier, Nestle Professional Vitality, will also be matching the first $5,000 of donations!

Plus, many of our restaurants will be going above and beyond by holding additional fundraising events on Saturday including pictures with Santa, karaoke for Kids, balloon animals, and more! Click here to find an event near you!

Thanks in advance for making our One Day, One Dollar initiative a success! We’ll see you on Saturday, December 2!

At Eat’n Park, one of our primary areas of philanthropic focus is enhancing the lives of military veterans and their families. As part of this commitment, we are excited to announce that we’re sponsoring a soon-to-be service dog who will be matched with a veteran after its training!

To help celebrate the newest member of our Eat'n Park family, we asked our team members to help us name her! Over 200 suggestions were submitted, but we just couldn’t decide. So, we asked our Facebook family, and after 3,500 votes, our new furry friend was named Parker!

What is Caring for Kids? 

Caring for Kids is an annual, five-week long fundraising campaign for children’s hospitals across our restaurant footprint. What started in 1979 from the passion of one team member at one restaurant has now grown into a company-wide effort, which raised $445,400 last year.

Caring for Kids, even in its 39th year, continues to be a campaign driven by the heart of our team members. This is why, restaurant to restaurant, each campaign looks a little different from the rest. We will keep you updated on the campaign events happening near you, so be sure to check back often. Your support will go a long way to help the kids in children’s hospitals in your region.

Caring for Kids Buzz Words

Here are the most popular ways our restaurants fundraise for the campaign.

Rodeo Round-Up: If you happen to be dining at an Eat’n Park restaurant during this event, you will be encouraged to “round-up” your bill to the nearest dollar, donating the extra change to the campaign.

Santa Smileys: This is a quick and easy way to make a $1 pledge to Caring for Kids. Purchase a paper Santa Smiley for $1, write your name on it, and it will be hung in the restaurant throughout the campaign.

One Day, One Dollar: On Saturday, December 2, we have a goal to raise $10,000 for our Caring for Kids Campaign in one day! Help us stopping by to enjoy fun in-restaurant activities and adding a $1 donation to your check!

Ford Car Raffle: Our generous friends at Neighborhood Ford Store have donated a 2018 Ford Escape to our campaign! You can buy a chance (or ten) to win for only $2 each. All proceeds benefit Caring for Kids.

Read on to learn how you can help support our 39th Annual Caring for Kids campaign!

$2 Raffle Tickets – 2018 Ford Escape

Our generous partner, Neighborhood Ford Store, has kindly donated a 2018 Ford Escape to the campaign - so one lucky guest is going to be taking home a pretty sweet Christmas present!

Raffle tickets are available for just $2 each at all Eat'n Park locations. Just ask your server for one (or 10!) for your chance to win. 100% of the proceeds from the raffle go directly to the campaign.
