The all-day fundraiser is scheduled for November 14th, 2020, which consumers can donate to by using code MLKHS100 when they place their orders. 100 percent of the proceeds raised from the initiative will go to the [Riverside high school](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-maruchan-ramen-cottage-party), and will be used to ensure students have access to the supplies and materials that they need.
