Get breakfast and give back all in one fell swoop at the annual 11th annual South Okanagan Drive-Thru Breakfast in support of United Way.
On Thursday, March 2, from 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m., stop by the Penticton Lakeside Resort to pick up hot coffee, treats, giveaways and, of course, a breakfast bag, all in exchange for a donation. Last year, the organization raised more than $25,000.
All donations go to United Way's initiatives in the South Okanagan, like a food infrastructure grant and other local programs that help ensure all residents from Summerland and Penticton to Princeton and Osoyoos are fed and healthy.
Drive-thru guests will potentially win a prize hidden in one of the breakfast bags.
Prizes include a two-night stay at Sparkling Hill Health and Wellness Resort, Pacific Coastal Airlines flight vouchers, and much more.
A minimum $20 donation is suggested, while the bag value is approximately $50 thanks to local business donors.
"Together, we can strengthen vital connections," event organizers said in a press release Tuesday.
"Please, join us on March 2!"
