JT’s Brew & Grill sponsors second Empowering fundraiser
GREENVILLE – JT’s Brew & Grill sponsored its second Empowering
Darke County Youth fundraiser of 2019 recently, nearly doubling its
financial support for the year. Any patron eating lunch or dinner at
JT’s the last day of October had a percentage of their check donated to
Empowering programs.
Presenting the check to Chelsea Jones, Empowering Assistant Program
& Volunteer Coordinator, was Trisha Hill, Manager of JT’s Brew
& Grill, Greenville. JT’s has two locations, its second one in St.
Marys. Both locations are active in offering community service
opportunities to their communities.
“This is a great opportunity for our programs to get financial
support,” said Bob Robinson, Executive Director. “We sent flyers to
parents and caregivers and promoted JT’s through Facebook. The weather
was horrible that day, but everyone still came out for us. We can’t
thank Trish, JT’s and its patrons enough for their continued support of
our efforts.”
Empowering Darke County Youth currently provides academic help to 117
students from four Darke County school districts. Since the
organization was formed, Empowering has worked more that 16,000 hours
with over 700 students throughout the county.
The Empowering Mission: Empowering Darke County Youth is a 501c3 United
Way Partner Agency providing After School and Summer Tutoring programs
to assist students in the areas of language arts and math with the goal
of Strong Students for a Strong Community.
