The National Leadership Foundation (a Texas nonprofit) is bringing opportunities to Texans to learn about and support Texas charities. And Texas Taco Week is a FUN way to do that.

The NLF has a long history of supporting Texas charities and our neighbors who need help through their Greatest Gift Catalog Ever (501c3). They do this by spreading charitable missions and messages out to neighborhoods through print, television, radio, social media, etc. You can visit www.GreatestGiftCatalogEver.org to see more about this particular project.

Texas Taco Week (another NLF project) began as Fort Worth Taco Week and now graduates to include our entire state so that many more charities and restaurants can participate. Visit www.TexasTacoWeek to find out about this year's event!

1. Charities that are available for adoption are any Texas nonprofits in good standing and have a certified 501c3. Any cause is eligible except politically based causes.

2. Each participating restaurant receives a contact name and contact information from their chosen charity. This grateful person will be the one to deliver the restaurant’s media kit and to receive the donation after TX Taco Week is finished.

1. Patrons will visit participating restaurants and purchase their chosen TX Taco Week special. For each special purchased, the restaurant agrees to donate a portion of proceeds to their chosen charity.

2. Restaurant agrees to report their total intended donation to their chosen charity after completion of the event on or before May 10th.

3. Restaurant agrees to complete donation to the chosen charity on or before May 15th, and will deliver monies directly to their charity partner.

4. The National Leadership Foundation will not audit the donation accounting of participating restaurants. Restaurants will be participating in the honor system and will be donating to their chosen charity directly.

5. No additional donations to charities should or will be collected during TX Taco Week. Only the featured special promotion will provide a donation. If customers wish to make an additional donation, they can contact that charity directly.

1. TX Taco Week is proud to partner with media across the state who will be producing content including social media, print, and radio to support this charitable event.

2. Participating restaurants who provide a signed agreement by March 29th will be included in promotional content.

3. Participating restaurants will be provided a media kit including a poster for their front door area and stand-up counter cards for their register reception area and digital images for social media. Use of posters and counter cards items is expected so patrons are easily able to recognize a participating TX Taco Week location.

If for some reason, you are not able to display both the poster and the counter cards, please let us know so we can provide an exemption for you for this important part of FW Taco Week.

4. TX Taco week posters should be displayed two weeks before TX Taco Week. This will generate excitement within the community and give your customers a reason to come back! Take a photo of your poster and send it to us at texastacoweek@gmail.com so that we can promote your featured special and chosen charity.

5. Participating restaurants are asked to post on their social media the week before…and the week of TX Taco Week letting their followers know about their participation.

6. The National Leadership Foundation will also be posting during the event and the weeks prior to the event on social media.

7. It is expected that benefiting charities will also let their donors and followers know about TX Taco Week through social media and any other channels that they choose.
