Award-winning PDQ restaurants (People Dedicated to Quality) and The Alonso Foundation are teaming up to give back all month long to celebrate the return of baseball season.
Starting with the day of the Mets’ home opener on Thursday, April 6, guests to PDQ’s two Long Island locations in Farmingdale (NY) and Westbury (NY), as well as PDQ restaurants in Port St. Lucie (FL) and Stuart (FL), can round up their check or make a donation, with 100 percent of all money raised given directly to the Alonso Foundation.
"Being able to partner with PDQ, and all the people there, means a lot to us,” said Alonso. “PDQ stands for quality in all that they do and they are so supportive of giving back to important causes like those that The Alonso Foundation works every day to help. Personally I love the spicy chicken sandwich and it's just really cool that every guest can help us generate funds to be used back in the community."
“Pete is an All-Star on and off the field, and the work he and Haley are doing to help so many is incredible to see,” said Nick Reader, PDQ Co-Founder and CEO. “Pete is making a difference in New York and Florida, and we are honored to partner with him and his foundation. It has been special to watch him and our brand grow and flourish together, from our original PDQ location across from Plant High School in Tampa where he started, to our location in Gainesville during his amazing career at the University of Florida, and now our Long Island restaurants and his Mets success.”
