After its July fundraising campaign, Texas de Brazil announced today that the family-owned Brazilian steakhouse brand has raised nearly $33,000 to support the American Red Cross in their efforts to help members of the military, veterans and their families prepare for, cope with, and respond to, the challenges of military service.
The campaign promoted in Texas de Brazil restaurants nationwide and on various digital platforms raised nearly $23,000 paired with a corporate donation from the company of $10,000.
“We proudly support the American Red Cross programs serving our military veterans and families and feel fortunate to have the ability to craft a campaign that provides our guests with an opportunity to raise funds that go directly to those who protect our freedoms,” says Salim Asrawi, president of Texas de Brazil.
“Texas de Brazil’s July fundraising campaign allowed both its staff and customers to make an impact on the Red Cross mission,” said Ariane Einecker, chief development officer, American Red Cross North Texas Region. “We are extremely grateful for the continued support of Texas de Brazil and their customers and look forward to many more years of partnership.”
Every day, the American Red Cross provides 24/7 global emergency communication services and other support in military and veteran health care facilities across the country and around the world. The Red Cross has been serving the military for more than 140 years and has deployed alongside military in every U.S. conflict since the Spanish-American War.
