Runza Day Brings in $6K to Support TeamMates of Lincoln

Runza (runza.com) gifted TeamMates of Lincoln (teammates.org) nearly $6,000 to support mentoring during the 2019 Runza Day Campaign on April 2. Runza, home of the tasty ground beef and cabbage sandwich, believes that it takes more than food to serve a community. That’s why they have partnered with TeamMates since 2010, encouraging their employees to serve as mentors and annually donating 10% of sales on Runza Day.

Becky Perrett, director of marketing for Runza National, explains the company’s motivation for supporting TeamMates: “TeamMates’ footprint is primarily in Nebraska, as is Runza’s footprint,” Becky says. “We are committed to giving back locally, especially through the TeamMates model which so effectively identifies students who need support.”

Runza’s ongoing support of TeamMates of Lincoln assists in fulfilling the mission of positively impacting the world by inspiring youth to reach their full potential. TeamMates thanks Runza for making community youth a priority.
