Donate a backpack, get a FREE sundae!
As part of its ongoing support of the community, Hoffman’s Chocolates is pleased to announce that it is celebrating the start of the 2018/2019 school year by holding a Backpack Drive, now through August 10, to benefit ChildNet. ChildNet is a Community-Based Care (CBC) lead agency in both Broward and Palm Beach counties that works to protect abused, abandoned and neglected children.
Anyone who donates a NEW school backpack at a participating Hoffman’s Chocolates location now through Friday, August 10, will receive a Free Ice Cream Sundae. The offer is limited to one Hoffman’s Chocolates Ice Cream Sundae per donated school backpack (no drawstring bags, messenger bags or fanny packs). All backpacks should be brought to the store registers for redemption. Participating locations include the chocolatier’s stores in Greenacres, Boca Raton, Palm Beach Gardens, Delray Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Plantation and Weston. Please visit hoffmans.com for store locations and hours of operation.
“Being an active member of the community has always been a priority of Hoffman’s Chocolates,” said Lois Marino, Director of Community Engagement for Hoffman’s Chocolates. “We understand how expensive it can be to send a child back to school and we want to do our part by holding our back-to-school drive and help as many children and families in the community as we can.”
“We are thrilled to be involved with this event and we applaud Hoffman’s Chocolates for supporting this effort and giving back to the kids in our community,” said Larry Rein, CEO and President of ChildNet. “This drive allows many children in foster care to have the supplies they need in order to be successful in the classroom.”
