The families of Latch Key pay no fees for the services they receive. The program operates solely on grants, United Way, donations and fundraisers.
The Pearl Griffin Memorial Latch Key Program will be hosting their annual Hamburger Supper Fundraiser on Tuesday, April 13th from 5-7pm at 2411 Coggin Avenue.
This event will look a little different from past years as everything will be outdoor seating (weather permitting) and take out.
The Pecan Valley Kiwanis will be cooking the burgers and hotdogs for the program as in past years and then prepared in to-go boxes for safe and easy pick up.
Hamburger supper meals are $5 for children and $7 for adults which includes either a hotdog or hamburger with chips and a drink.
Our hamburger supper is sponsored by Humphrey Pete’s, Subway on Austin, Dr Pepper Bottling Co, The Benton Family, United Supermarket, Brookeshires and anonymous donors. Our sponsors have donated the items needed for this event 100% so all ticket sales stay within the program.
