FRISCO, Texas, July 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Jamba, Inc.
(Nasdaq: JMBA), a leading lifestyle brand whose mission is to
inspire and simplify healthy living, announced its second year of
partnership with Folds of Honor, a national non-profit committed to
providing educational scholarships to children and spouses of
veterans killed or disabled while serving our nation.
Jamba Juice is sharing the opportunity with guests across the
country to salute service members and their families by making an
in-store donation to Folds of Honor at participating Jamba Juice
locations. Guests can add $1 or more
to their purchase in support of Folds of Honor from July 4 through 31.
"It's an honor to work with an organization whose mission
supports military families. We feel privileged to once again
partner with Folds of Honor and join with our guests to rally
around the cause," said Dave Pace,
President and CEO, Jamba Juice. "We
salute the men and women who protect our freedom every day."
"We are proud to partner with Jamba for a second year and
appreciate their support while we fulfill our mission of providing
scholarships to deserving families," said Major Dan Rooney, CEO and Founder of Folds of
Honor. "We're inspired every day by our friends and partners, and
we look forward to continuing to work together to make life a
little easier for military families across the country."
As of July, Folds of Honor will have given out more than
$100 million in scholarship funds
throughout its 11 years of service. Currently, the organization is
receiving more scholarship applications than it can support, but is
committed to growing until it can provide educational assistance to
each and every military family who needs it. The scholarships
provided are used to subsidize the costs of tuition, school books,
fees, on-campus room and board, approved educational tutoring, and
other approved educational expenses that a student's school may
deem appropriate.
