BROOMFIELD, Colo., March 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Noodles &
Company (NASDAQ: NDLS), known for its mission to nourish and
inspire every team member, guest, and community it serves,
announced today that all 58 of its Colorado restaurants will host a fundraiser on
April 6 from 4 p.m. to close and donate 50% of
sales* to the Colorado Healing Fund, a 501(c)(3)
non-profit organization. The Colorado Healing Fund was founded
by a group of victim advocates and community leaders to establish a
secure way for the public to contribute to victims of the
Boulder supermarket tragedy and other mass casualty crimes in
Colorado.
The fundraiser will take place from 4 p.m. to
close at all Noodles & Company locations in Colorado and includes all orders placed
in-restaurant, online or via the Noodles Rewards app. In
addition to the fundraiser, Noodles & Company has
made it easy to give directly to the Colorado Healing Fund by
including a link to the foundation's website
at Noodles.com/GivingBackCO.
"Our hearts go out to the victims, families, first responders,
law enforcement and all the people impacted by this senseless
tragedy — we share in your pain and stand with the
Boulder community," said
Dave Boennighausen, chief executive officer
at Noodles & Company. "We were founded in Boulder 25 years ago with the simple
mission to nourish and inspire, and with every
bowl of noodles served, the Boulder community has inspired
us in return, showing us the best of
humanity through the selfless, generous, unique, and
loving people who live here. We care deeply about our
communities and we are proud to call Boulder and the surrounding community
home. As this community comes together
to mend, we're committed to supporting the
Colorado Healing Fund, which is dedicated to
giving victims and their families the resources and
support they need during this difficult time.
