REDDING, Calif. - June 01, 2017 - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Black Bear Diner, an award-winning family dining concept headquartered in Redding, California, announced today a promotional fundraising campaign to help support the National Park Foundation’s Centennial Campaign for America’s National Parks. The goal of the month-long campaign is to help support the National Park Foundation’s mission to protect more than 84 million acres of national parks through critical conservation and preservation efforts, connect all Americans with their incomparable natural landscapes, vibrant culture and rich history, and inspire the next generation of park stewards.

“We’re proud to support the National Park Foundation in their mission,” said David Doty, chief marketing officer for Black Bear Diner. “It’s a synergistic partnership that we believe our customers will embrace because it ties in directly to our brand and the important conservation and preservation efforts that help protect black bears in the wilderness.”

The fundraising effort, which runs from June 1 - June 30, features the all-new National Parks Burger. The National Parks Burger includes two, five-ounce seasoned all-beef patties on Black Bear Diner’s signature brioche bun. The burger is stacked high with two slices of thick-cut bacon, cheddar cheese, egg and onion rings. One dollar from every burger sold throughout Black Bear Diner’s 95 restaurants will be donated to the National Park Foundation.

Black Bear Diner is also providing the National Park Foundation $1 from every commemorative gift shop item sold at each Black Bear Diner restaurant. Placemats featuring prominent national parks will also help reinforce the partnership.

“There are countless ways to support national parks, and we’re grateful to Black Bear Diner for introducing such a delicious one,” said Stefanie Mathew, vice president of corporate partnerships at the National Park Foundation. “This partnership not only drives donations, but it also raises awareness about how contributions from organizations and individuals can really help protect our parks and ensure they thrive for generations to come.”

Black Bear Diner and the National Park Foundation recently teamed up during National Park Week and have been official partners since January 2017. Black Bear Diner aims to raise $50,000 in 2017 for the National Park Foundation.
