Domesti-PUPS Receives $10K Donation from Raising Cane’s

On June 19, Domesti-PUPS (domesti-pups.org) received a generous donation of $10,000 from the local Raising Cane’s franchisee—Southern Hospitality Ventures, Inc (www.raisingcanes.com). Raising Cane’s recently earned the 2019 Restaurant Neighbor Award from the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation for their commitment to community service in their restaurant’s communities, and as part of the award, they were given $10,000 to donate to a local organization of their choice.

“We have been working with Domesti-PUPS for many years and are incredibly excited to be donating $10,000 to this amazing cause.” said Jennifer Jones, Co-Owner of the Nebraska franchise. “Having a therapy dog of our own that graduated from the Domesti-PUPS program, we have personally witnessed the impact a therapy dog can have on children and adults alike. There’s something about a therapy dog that allows people to instantly feel at ease and put their guard down, and we want to help as many people as possible feel that.”

Raising Cane’s has One Love—quality chicken finger meals—and focuses its menu offering on fresh, made-to-order chicken fingers paired with their homemade Cane’s sauce, grilled Texas toast, fresh coleslaw, and crinkle-cut fries.  Learn more by going to the Lincoln Raising Cane’s Facebook and Twitter page (@RaisingCanesSHV).
