Chili’s Restaurant has approached the NMAA and NMAA Foundation with an excellent fundraising opportunity that will help bring funds to the foundation and also to member school athletic/activity programs across the state.
Beginning November 12, 2008, Chili’s will host a monthly “Give Back” night at each of their 16 stores across New Mexico. On these nights, 10% of any sales generated by customers bringing in a special “NMAA Give Back” flyer will be donated to the NMAA Foundation. These funds will then be used for student scholarships and for new program grants at schools across the state.
