White Spot, a well-known restaurant chain in British Columbia, has launched a charitable initiative aimed at supporting local families. The business partners with Variety – the Children’s Charity for this important philanthropic initiative.
From February 18 to 21, White Spot will donate $2 from every burger sold, either in store or take out, to help children and youth in BC with disabilities and complex medical needs. This campaign allows customers to enjoy the restaurant's signature burgers while contributing to a meaningful cause, as the funds raised will provide essential programs, services, and resources for families who rely on Variety’s support. This year’s fundraiser coincides with Variety’s Show of Hearts Telethon, an event White Spot has actively participated in for years, not only through donations but also by providing meals for the event crew.
