Established in 1992, the Taco Bell Foundation for Teens is a public 501c-3 charity\u00a0committed to inspiring teenagers to graduate from high school and become caring,\u00a0educated and productive adults. Through our partners and programs, such as the Boys\u00a0& Girls Clubs, the Foundation has created a national focus to foster educational, career\u00a0and service opportunities for teens.<\/p>\n

Funding comes from the generosity of Taco Bell customer donations and the support of\u00a0Taco Bell employees, franchisees and partners. The money being donated was\u00a0collected throughout 2015 in the Watertown area Taco Bell restaurants. Canisters are\u00a0placed in the restaurants so patrons can support the program by donating their spare\u00a0change.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo many area teens benefit from the programs and services that the Children\u2019s Home\u00a0of Jefferson County provides and we are proud to be able to support them,\u201d said Steve\u00a0Pinkerton, Owner\/Vice President, Hospitality Syracuse, Inc.<\/p>\n

The Taco Bell Foundation for Teens is the largest donor to Boys & Girls Clubs of\u00a0America, Inc., giving more than $40 million to support teen programming since\u00a01995. In addition, Taco Bell Foundation for Teens provides grants to other worthy\u00a0programs that are designed to help teens stay in school and on the path to graduation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
