Good food and the opportunity to do good

This holiday season, the Duchess Restaurant in Penfield, NY is not just serving up good food. They’re serving up an opportunity to do good, too.

As a Hillside Special Santas Community Partner, Duchess Restaurant will display hundreds of Hillside Special Santas gift tags, each one describing a specific child’s wish, this year. Diners at the restaurant are asked to take a tag home after enjoying their meal, and purchase a corresponding gift. New, unwrapped gifts should be returned by December 17 to the restaurant.

“The partnership with Duchess is truly a gift,” says Sally Bohne, Hillside Special Santas director. “The simple act of making Hillside Special Santas gift tags available to the many people that eat at Duchess Restaurant demonstrates a true dedication to youth and families.”

Last year alone, patrons that came to the restaurant located on helped to collect more than 400 gifts for Hillside Special Santas.
