As part of their Hootie’s Lending Library initiative, Beach Place Hooters
employees Chyna Veitch, Hannah Carter and Abigail Helpingstine had the
opportunity to visit patients at Broward Health Salah Foundation Children’s
Hospital on November 1. During the visit the group delivered over 100
children’s books plus meals consisting of boneless wings, salad and desserts.
“Our employees enjoy partnering with our local children’s hospitals year
round including Broward Health Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital. We
created the Hootie’s Lending Library program to provide books for the kids to
read when they are in the hospital and every month we are always adding new
books. It is our priority to give back where there is a need. Our kitchen staff,
Hooters Girls and managers enjoy the opportunity to prepare the meals for
the hospital staff and deliver the books and visit the children,” said South
Florida Hooters Director of Marketing Kristi Quarles. In addition, Hooters
was also a Bronze level sponsor of this year's Broward Health Golf
Tournament.
“Thank you for another great visit featuring Hootie's Lending Library and
delicious lunches. As always, we appreciate your continued support and
generosity,” said Child Life Coordinator Janice Zack.
Every month the South Florida Hooters restaurants donate more books and
meals as part of their community partnership with local hospitals. Hooters
has provided Holtz Children’s Hospital, Jackson North Medical Center, Joe
DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital with
custom library carts for Hootie’s Lending Library” in the Pediatric ER. Each
rolling library cart is filled with books for children of all ages. Every month
the restaurant donates hundreds of books. Since 2022, Hootie’s Lending
Library has provided over 5,000 books to the local hospitals.
