White Spot Teams at Kingsway and Richmond Centre Locations Continue to Make Spirits Bright by Donating Wages and Tips to Support Local Causes.
VANCOUVER, BC (December 25, 2021) – Thank you to all the volunteers at the Richmond Centre and Kingsway & Knight White Spot locations, for donating their time to help raise $12,371 at their annual charitable lunch supporting Variety – The Children’s Charity and Richmond Hospital Foundation.
VANCOUVER, BC (December 23, 2021) — On Saturday, December 25, BC’s beloved restaurant chain White Spot will continue the long-standing tradition of giving back to the community by hosting special Christmas Charity Lunch Takeout Services (excludes delivery) at their Kingsway and Richmond Centre locations between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
This initiative sees both staff and management from both locations donate all net proceeds including wages and tips earned on the day to Variety – The Children’s Charity (Kingsway) and The Richmond Hospital Foundation (Richmond Centre). Since its inception in 2001, the initiative has generated more than $261,021 for both causes, with both locations raising a combined total of $18,651 in 2020.
The Christmas Day menus vary by location but offer White Spot favourites such as The Legendary Burger, The Spot’s Fish & Chips, Nat’s Beef Dip and Traditional Roast Turkey Dinner.
“The holiday season is all about giving, and we’re so proud to continue supporting two very worthy causes in our community with this special initiative,” says White Spot President Warren Erhart. “Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to our front- and back-of-house staff members who donate their time each year, and to all of our guests who join in the fun and festivities on Christmas Day.”
