Holiday Giveback Campaign: Dec 2-21

This holiday season, Backyard Taco invites you to join us in spreading joy and giving back to our community. From December 2nd to December 21st, we’re hosting a special holiday giveback campaign designed to make a positive impact while offering a fun way for you to get involved.

Here’s how you can participate:

• Donate a Non-Perishable Item – Bring a non-perishable food item to any Backyard Taco location during the campaign dates.
• Receive a Free Medium Drink – As a token of our gratitude, you’ll enjoy a refreshing medium drink on us.
• Enter to Win Exciting Prizes – Each donation also enters you into our holiday giveaway, with winners announced on December 23rd. Thanks to our partnership with Coca-Cola, this year’s prizes are sure to add some extra cheer to your season!

Giving back during the holidays is a simple yet powerful way to make a difference. By donating even one non-perishable item, you’re helping to provide essential resources for families and individuals in need. These small acts of kindness add up, creating ripples of positivity that spread throughout the community.

Beyond the donations, this campaign fosters a sense of unity and community spirit. It’s an opportunity for families, friends, and neighbors to come together for a common purpose: ensuring that everyone has something to celebrate this holiday season. At Backyard Taco, we’re honored to provide a platform for this generosity and to work alongside you to give back.

Together, we can make the holidays brighter for those in need. Let’s turn simple gestures into lasting impact—one donation at a time.

A New Leaf Partnership: 10,000 Meals Served

At Backyard Taco, giving back to our community isn’t just something we do during the holidays—it’s part of who we are year-round. One of the most impactful ways we’ve supported our community is through our ongoing partnership with A New Leaf, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping individuals and families overcome challenges like homelessness and domestic violence.

This year, we proudly celebrated an incredible milestone: Backyard Taco served its 10,000th meal at A New Leaf’s East Valley Men’s Center.

Over the years, these meals have provided much more than nourishment—they’ve offered comfort, dignity, and encouragement to men striving to rebuild their lives. Each meal represents a small but vital step toward recovery and hope for a brighter future.

A New Leaf’s East Valley Men’s Center provides shelter, resources, and support to individuals experiencing homelessness, helping them get back on their feet. Our partnership with this organization reflects our shared commitment to creating meaningful change in the community. By donating meals, we aim to be a consistent source of encouragement and sustenance for those in need.

“Homelessness is a significant challenge in our community, and it takes partnerships like this to drive real change,” said a representative from A New Leaf. “Backyard Taco’s unwavering support demonstrates the profound impact that giving back can have on your neighbors in need.”

This milestone is a testament to what’s possible when businesses and nonprofits work together to make a difference. At Backyard Taco, we’re honored to support A New Leaf’s mission and will continue to do our part in helping build a stronger, more compassionate community.

Dining to Donate and Other Giveback Efforts

At Backyard Taco, supporting the community goes beyond a single campaign. Over the years, we’ve hosted numerous Dining to Donate events, where a portion of our proceeds is dedicated to supporting local schools, nonprofits, and other important causes. These events provide a simple yet impactful way for our guests to give back—just by enjoying the delicious meals they already love.

Dining to Donate Highlights:

• By participating in Dining to Donate, customers have helped raise funds for programs that benefit education, youth sports, and community wellness.
• Each event brings the community together, creating an atmosphere of shared purpose and positivity.

In addition to Dining to Donate, we’ve collaborated with local organizations like Coca-Cola to sponsor prizes and enhance the excitement of our campaigns. Partnerships like these amplify our ability to give back, ensuring we can reach more people and create a bigger impact. Whether it’s through prize giveaways, meal donations, or hosting events, we strive to combine generosity with joy in every initiative.

From meal donations at A New Leaf to holiday giveback campaigns, our efforts all stem from a deep belief in the power of community. We know that even small actions—like enjoying a meal at one of our locations—can contribute to meaningful change when combined with the generosity of our guests and partners.

Stay tuned for future Dine to Donate opportunities, holiday campaigns, and other ways to get involved. Every visit to Backyard Taco is a chance to make a difference, and we’re grateful to our community for helping us turn meals into moments of giving.
