The fundraiser ends March 1, and 1,650 people have donated so far, reported the article.

Owner David Rubinstein chose the charity because he wanted to support a local organization, shared the article. All proceeds will go to the Child Life program at the hospital.

“We were attempting to come up with a new marketing program,” Rubinstein said in the article. “What we settled on was a fundraiser. In turn, it’s really good because it benefits the hospital as well.”
