SAN DIEGO, Nov. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Fresh Start Surgical Gifts, a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of children with physical deformities through reconstructive surgery, is excited to announce a special partnership with Get Maine Lobster, known for delivering the freshest lobster to households nationwide. This partnership will kick off on Giving Tuesday, November 28, and extend throughout the holiday season.

On Giving Tuesday and beyond, Get Maine Lobster will be giving back to Fresh Start by donating five percent of sales on their website. While guests are checking out on the Get Maine Lobster website, there is an icon associated with Fresh Start that customers can click to support. Then, Get Maine Lobster will donate a portion of the sale to Fresh Start at no additional cost to the customer. That means that every time customers purchase fresh lobster, a child will be one step closer to receiving their fresh start.

"Teaming up with Get Maine Lobster is such an amazing opportunity for us," says Shari Brasher, the CEO of Fresh Start Surgical Gifts. "Our mission is all about transforming the lives of children in need of lifechanging care, and this partnership is taking us another step forward in that journey. We can't wait to see the positive impact we can create together as we collaborate with Get Maine Lobster and their passion for making a difference this holiday season!"

The goal of this campaign is to encourage monthly giving, with options for Get Maine Lobster's customers to have a percentage of their order donated at no extra cost, with every order. Fresh Start and Get Maine Lobster share in the belief that collective generosity, paired with a love for lobster, can truly make a difference.

"We at Get Maine Lobster are thrilled to announce our partnership with Fresh Start, a collaboration where a little indulgence meets making a big difference," says Mark Murrell, Get Maine Lobster Founder & CEO. "With every purchase, our customers not only can savor the exquisite taste of Maine's finest lobsters but also contribute to a wave of positive change. A portion of our proceeds will be dedicated to Fresh Start, supporting their mission to create new beginnings for kids in need. Together, we're not just sharing the bounty of the sea, but also fostering a tide of generosity and hope."

Fresh Start Surgical Gifts is committed to transforming the lives of disadvantaged youth with physical deformities by providing comprehensive reconstructive surgery at no cost to the patient and their family. All of the world-class medical professionals generously donate their time and talent to deliver much-needed medical care and 100 percent of all financial contributions go directly toward the patients. Every dollar donated allows Fresh Start to gift five dollars in medical services.
