KFC Donates Over $3,000 To BBBS Charity
Following a successful 4th consecutive ‘Halloween Treat Voucher’ Campaign, KFC raised $3,012 in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Bermuda after another year of selling treat voucher booklets at their Queen Street, Hamilton location.
“KFC was excited to support one of Bermuda’s most noteworthy charities and delighted that they were able to handover a sizable cheque to help the charity and its initiatives,” the company said.
“For only two dollars, packets of 5 vouchers were available from KFC to redeem for KFC product with retail value up to $12.25. Each voucher allows a child aged 12 or under to redeem it and receive either an apple turnover, one order of French fries or a chocolate chip cookie. All vouchers are valid until January 31st, 2019 at KFC’s Hamilton location.
