Edible® Florida and Texas Franchisees Join Forces to Raise Nearly $29K for Hurricane Michael Relief Fund

March 26, 2019 // Franchising.com // Florida and Texas - Edible Arrangements® franchisees across Florida and Texas came together to raise $28,741 benefiting the Global Giving Hurricane Michael Relief Fund. More than 160 stores across the states participated in the fundraiser by donating a portion of their proceeds to benefit the Fund.

“Edible®’s franchisees are committed to supporting relief efforts and giving back, from donating fruit salads to volunteering, they are always look for ways to support and connect with their communities,” said Chad Pentoney, Edible Arrangements® Field Business Consultant. “I’m proud of the generosity of the franchisees in Texas and Florida, many of whom were impacted themselves, to raise nearly $29,000 for the foundations that support the communities in need as a result of Hurricane Michael.”

The organizations the Fund aids are locally run, vetted and deeply-rooted in local communities, and are best positioned to provide long-term support for survivors of natural disasters like hurricanes. By funding the relief efforts of local organizations, there's potential to build stronger response capacity so that these organizations are better equipped to face future challenges.
