First Watch Bolsters Support for No Kid Hungry With Fall Menu Launch

The Daytime Café will donate a portion of all Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast sales to help end childhood hunger in U.S.

BRADENTON, Fla. - Aug. 30, 2016 // PRNewswire // - First Watch, the nation's leading breakfast, brunch and lunch concept, announced today that in conjunction with the introduction of its new Fall menu, the award-winning eatery will donate 10 cents to No Kid Hungry for every Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast sold during September. The company's Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast has proven to be its most popular and highly anticipated Fall seasonal menu item.

The Fall fundraiser is only a small supplement to the25 cents First Watch contributes to No Kid Hungry from every kid's meal sold year round. No Kid Hungry is ending childhood hunger today by ensuring that kids start the day with a nutritious breakfast and families learn the skills they need to shop and cook on a budget. This is First Watch's ninth consecutive year of support.

"No Kid Hungry's mission to end childhood hunger at home is something we are proud to stand behind," said Chris Tomasso, president of First Watch. "One in five children struggles with hunger, and that's undoubtedly too many. We're so humbled to work alongside this great organization and the other businesses in our communities once again for this cause. It's the least we can do to up our contributions during the month of September and do our part to help feed these kids where they live, learn and play."

First Watch's limited-time Fall menu brings back two customer favorites while introducing two new, innovative dishes. Customers can find the following seasonal offerings in addition to the traditional breakfast, brunch and lunch favorites at their local First Watch through Sunday, November 6:
