Help to Rebuild McKinley Park Simply By Dining Out

by SacFoodies

As most have probably heard, McKinley Park’s playground, the city’s beautiful wooden treasure for both children and adults alike, was set on fire last month by a suspected arsonist. 
In an effort to help swiftly rebuild the playground, Ten 22 and The Firehouse (both part of the Harvego family of restaurants) are aiming to contribute $25,000 to get the playground back up and running.
Here’s what you can do to get involved: From Sunday, August 19 to Saturday, August 25, dine at either The Firehouse or Ten 22 and each restaurant will donate 15 percent of its profits earned toward City Councilman Steve Cohn’s recently established Gifts to Share Inc./Rebuild McKinley project.
