LUBBOCK, Texas, July 2, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- In America, one in six children lives with hunger. This July, Abuelo's Mexican Restaurant is making every meal count by joining thousands of restaurants nationwide to raise funds for No Kid Hungry. Famous for its authentic, made-from-scratch Mexican cuisine, Abuelo's is celebrating the restaurant's 30^th anniversary with drink specials, fun and prizes each Thursday in July while also giving guests a chance to fight childhood hunger.

On Thursdays all month long, guests who join the restaurant's birthday celebrations held at any of its 37 locations can donate $5 to No Kid Hungry to spin a prize wheel for a chance to win free made-from-scratch appetizers, authentic Mexican entrees, tasty desserts, delicious queso and stylish Abuelo's swag. Guests who want to help end childhood hunger in America can also donate to No Kid Hungry at Abuelo's without spinning the prize wheel — the choice is theirs.

"Giving back to our community is a core part of our culture at Abuelo's," said Bob Lin, President. "We sponsor and participate in charitable programs nationwide, and we're proud to work with No Kid Hungry again this year to celebrate a major anniversary. Abuelo's worked with No Kid Hungry to mark our 25^th anniversary. With our guests' help, we hope to raise even more funds this year to help kids facing hunger here in America."

Funds raised support No Kid Hungry's work to connect vulnerable children to effective nutrition programs like school breakfast and summer meals, creating partnerships that work to identify and break down barriers to giving children access to meals. Learn more at NoKidHungry.org.
