Donations

Since you’ve navigated to our donations page, it probably means that you’re in the midst of planning a really awesome event to be enjoyed by the community or perhaps you’re coordinating efforts to help your neighbors. Whatever the case may be, we want you to know that we are proud to be a part of community of helpers – people, like you, who care about others. We strive to be active community partners as well. For us, right now, that means our primary focus is on safely serving our guests with a smile during these challenging times.  

As such, our community programs are temporarily on hold, and we are unable to consider requests at this time. This includes our corporate-level donation program and our Smiley and Cookie Cruiser program.  

How to ask your local Eat’n Park for a donation:

Our managers take pride in being involved in their local communities. Call your neighborhood Eat’n Park to discuss what donation options may be available to you. You could be eligible for:  

• Up to 15 dozen cookies at 50% off
• Up to $10 in gift cards
• Up to 2 dozen cookies free

To be considered for one of these donations, please take a written request on your organization's letterhead to the general manager of your local Eat'n Park. Restaurant managers reserve the right to deny donation requests. Requesting donations from multiple Eat'n Park locations for the same event is prohibited.

Thank you for thinking of Eat’n Park. We send you smiles and wishes of health and wellbeing!

Youth Sports Sponsorship Program

We’re committed to creating smiles in our community and we’re big believers in a healthy future for our kids! That’s why we're proud to support local youth sports leagues through our Youth Sports Sponsorship Program.

Each Eat'n Park restaurant has a budget set aside to provide a uniform sponsorship for one or more local teams. If you are able to put the Eat'n Park name or logo on your team's shirts, you could be one of those teams! Just contact the manager at your local Eat'n Park Restaurant and ask about participating in the Youth Sports Sponsorship Program.

It's easy to get started, so don't delay! Each restaurant has a limited budget to work with, so sponsorships are awarded on a first come, first served basis at the start of the new calendar year. Click here to find the telephone number for the Eat'n Park Restaurant nearest to you.

At Eat'n Park, not only do we strive to be a great neighborhood restaurant but a great neighbor as well! Read more about how we're enhancing our communities one smile at a time here. 

Best wishes for a successful season!
 

Fundraising

At Eat'n Park, we're committed to helping non-profit partners raise smiles; that's why we offer our Fundraising Gift Card Program and Smiley Cookie Fundraising, which are designed to keep organizations and supporters happy!

Fundraising Gift Card Program

The Fundraising Gift Card Program is an easy way for your non-profit to raise money. Simply purchase the cards at a 10% discount and resell them at full value. Your group receives the 10% profit for your initiative, and your friends, neighbors, and supporters receive smiles galore!

Fundraising Gift Cards come in $10 and $25 denominations, are redeemable at all Eat'n Parks, and there is no minimum purchase required.

For more information about the Fundraising Gift Card Program, go here and print an enrollment form or call 1.800.727.4715. 

Smiley Cookie Fundraising

Perfect for concession stands, festivals, or concerts, Smiley Cookie Fundraising is a sweet, easy and effective way to raise money for your non-profit organization!  We offer non-profits the opportunity to purchase Smiley Cookies at a discounted rate of $6.00 per dozen from any Eat'n Park restaurant. We'll even customize your cookies in your team or organization's colors! Then, your organization resells the cookies for $1 each and keeps the profit. That's a $6.00 profit per dozen! Now that's something to smile about!

The Eat'n Park Smiley Cookie Fundraising Program requires that orders of 25 dozen or less be placed with the restaurant where the cookies will be picked up at least 48 hours in advance. If you are ordering more than 25 dozen, please contact your local restaurant for a timeframe. You can order cookies by filling out the application and returning it to a manager at your neighborhood Eat’n Park.   Download the application here or pick one up at the restaurant during your next visit.
