12 Cuts to donate 5 percent of proceeds from Father’s Day weekend; Art of Strategy Consulting to match those donations 1:1
12 Cuts Brazilian Steakhouse owners will donate 5 percent of proceeds from all in-house and carryout diners celebrating dad throughout Father’s Day Weekend (June 19-21) to the Storehouse of Collin County, a nonprofit that provides short-term assistance and long-term transformation to residents of Collin County. Art of Strategy Consulting (AOS) will match donations 1:1. Additionally, throughout that weekend, 12 Cuts welcomes donations of nonperishable food items for The Storehouse and will honor all donations with dessert “on the house.”
During the pandemic, The Storehouse, whose mission is to feed, clothe and care for neighbors in one community, has directed its focus to meet the critical need of providing food and has more than doubled the number of households served. For many families seeking assistance at The Storehouse, it is their first time to visit a food pantry.
“This is an unbelievably hard time for everyone,” said Brazilian American Restaurateur and 12 Cuts CEO Alda Boiani. “People are hurting and hungry. Restaurants are struggling. So many have lost their jobs. At 12 Cuts, we believe strongly in giving back and wanted to do something to help others especially during this unprecedented time.”
As Boiani was contemplating a beneficiary of the fundraiser, she shared her idea with Tina Winslow, a partner at Art of Strategy Consulting (AOS). Winslow, who works with Boiani and 12 Cuts, told Boiani that her sister-in-law Candace Winslow was the executive director of The Storehouse of Collin County, a nonprofit serving hungry families every week.
“As I shared this news with Alda, I could see her face light up as she immediately shared that she and her son had volunteered together at The Storehouse prior to the pandemic and had seen the nonprofit’s incredible work firsthand,” said Winslow. “This partnership was meant to be and also presented a wonderful opportunity for AOS to serve alongside 12 Cuts by offering a match.”
“The Storehouse of Collin County is elated to be the beneficiary of this fundraiser, which is a wonderful example of how working together can make an impact,” said Candace Winslow, executive director, The Storehouse of Collin County. “Without question, God’s hand was in the creation of this extraordinary partnership. We anticipate that even after the veil of Covid-19 is lifted, The Storehouse has reached a new normal of service that will continue for an undetermined period as families struggle to get back on their feet. The generosity of organizations like 12 Cuts and AOS ensures we can continue to help the many families in need during this challenging time.”
Located at 18010 Dallas Parkway in Dallas, 12 Cuts Brazilian Steakhouse opened in fall of 2019 and grew steadily until the start of COVID-19. This Churrascaria-style restaurant blends a traditional Brazilian steakhouse with elements of Argentinian cuisine.
