New Jersey BWW 5K Raises $2,500 for Local Boys & Girls Club
AMPAL Group’s Watchung, New Jersey, location raised money for the local Boys & Girls Club through a 5K held Oct. 30.
A Watchung, New Jersey, BWW© hosted its first ever 5K to raise money for a local Boys & Girls Club.
On Oct. 30, roughly 100 runners gathered at a local park to support the organization. Runners were given an event T-shirt, goodie bag, coffee, water, energy drinks and snacks. There were also multiple sponsor tables and a live DJ.
“This was an amazing event where AMPAL Group was able to give back in a big way while hosting a fun event for the local community,” said franchisee Amit Patel. “We were very grateful for the turnout and generosity of the community throughout our first 5K event.”
The 5K raised approximately $2,500 for the Boys & Girls Club, and B-Dubs® also held an Eat Wings Raise Funds event at the restaurant, which generated an additional $500.
“The local Boys & Girls Club brought their teens to help with the event, which was a treat to be able to work alongside those who the donation was going to help,” said Patel.
