T’s Restaurant is Teaming Up With Easter Seals RI In Support of the 12th Annual “Walk With Me” and VIP Campaign
Wakefield, RI -- T’s Restaurant has recently partnered with Easter Seals Rhode Island in support of two upcoming events, the 12th Annual Walk With Me Rhode Island on Saturday, May 10, at Goddard Memorial State Park in Warwick, RI and the VIP (Very Important Partners) Campaign.
Walk With Me is a carnival-infused, family fun walk around Goddard Park, that starts at 10am that raises awareness for Easter Seals RI services. All walkers will be partnered with an Easter Seals Honorary Ambassador—a child with a disability or special need who has benefited from Easter Seals services. After you take a brief spring stroll in the park, there will be activities for all ages at the post walk celebration at 11am where we will be honoring all of the mother’s figures in our lives.
In support of Walk With Me Rhode Island, T’s Restaurant is hosting a Walk With Me Kick-Off on Friday, March 28, from 7:30-8:30am at their East Greenwich location.
“This is a great opportunity for Team Captains to gather together and learn about the new and exciting changes to this year’s walk,” says Jennifer Martin, Easter Seals Rhode Island Events Manager. “It also gives them the opportunity to see what other teams are doing to raise money...and raise a little competition too!”
In addition, T’s Restaurant will also be hosting a hangtag promotion during the month of March. Patrons can purchase an Easter Seals RI hangtag at any of the three T’s locations, and all monies raised will benefit the VIP Campaign and support Early Intervention and Pediatric Outpatient services at Easter Seals RI.
“We are extremely grateful to T’s Restaurant for their outpouring of support for Easter Seals RI, Walk With Me and the VIP Campaign,” says Judy Foriter, Director of Development for Easter Seals Rhode Island. “New partnerships, such as this, give us the ability to raise awareness in the community for children and young adults with special needs and disabilities, and to talk about our programs and events.”
