BROOMFIELD, Colo., Nov. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Noodles &
Company (NASDAQ: NDLS), known for serving classic noodle, Zoodle
and Caulifloodle dishes from around the world, announced
today that it will be hosting more than 150 fundraisers on
National Day of Giving, which falls on December 1, 2020, to benefit
schools in its locations' communities.
In a 2020 AdoptAClassroom.org Teacher Survey, the majority
of teachers reported they've been spending their own money on
materials such as ink, software programs, and other
supplies needed for distanced
learning. Furthermore, 45% of teachers said their
spending has increased since remote and hybrid learning began this
year.
Noodles & Company seeks to take the
burden off teachers by hosting more than 150 simultaneous
fundraisers on Tuesday, December 1,
2020 in recognition of National Day of Giving. Between
4:00 - 8:00 p.m., participating
locations will donate 50% of qualifying sales* back to
the schools. These Noodles locations have partnered with a
school in their communities to raise much needed
funds to support school activities, purchase supplies, and
more.
"Noodles & Company has always supported local communities
and we recognize the importance of this now more than ever," said
Stacey Pool, chief marketing
officer of Noodles & Company. "Schools are the foundation
of our communities and are vital to everyone's future. We
understand teachers are doing everything they possibly
can to bring the best education experience to their students and
we're grateful to be able to support them through this year's
fundraising efforts."
Noodles makes it simple to host a fundraiser during the pandemic
through its Noodles Rewards program and app, where guests can use
