WITH STAFFING ISSUES HITTING ALL INDUSTRIES, OURS WAS NO DIFFERENT. VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT PRESENTED LIMITED FUNDRAISING OPPORTUNITIES. IN SPITE OF THAT, THERE WERE STILL BIG EFFORTS MADE AND BIG WINS. IN-RESTAURANT FUNDRAISING TOTALED OVER $638,000. FACING A SECOND YEAR WITH A VIRTUAL ANNUAL FRANCHISEE CONVENTION, FUNDRAISING EFFORTS WERE LIMITED TO OUR ANNUAL ONLINE SILENT AUCTION, WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE OUR HIGHEST SILENT AUCTION TO DATE RAISING 23% MORE THAN IN 2020. ADDITIONALLY, WE HAD VENDOR PARTNERS GIVE AN ADDITIONAL $47,000 IN LIEU OF, OR IN ADDITION TO, SILENT AUCTION ITEMS. OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH NO KID HUNGRY CONTINUED IN 2021 AS WE PROVIDED A GRANT TOTALING $440,000, BRINGING OUR TOTAL PARTNERSHIP SUPPORT TO OVER $1.2 MILLION TO DATE. WE HAD A GREAT INITIATIVE WITH THE POPEYES BRAND THROUGH THE CELEBRATION OF OUR NEW NUGGETS BY GIVING AWAY 1 MILLION NUGGETS IN THE FORM OF GIFT CARDS. GIFT CARDS TOTALING $1 MILLION WERE DONATED TO SECOND HARVEST FOOD BANK FEEDING SOUTH LOUISIANA. IN AUGUST, NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA WAS HIT WITH THE DEVASTATING HURRICANE IDA. OVERNIGHT WE WERE FLOODED WITH FAMILY FUND APPLICATIONS FROM OUR TEAM MEMBERS. DUE TO THE NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS COMING IN AND THE SPEED AT WHICH THEY WERE COMING IN, WE CALLED ON 65 BRAND TEAM MEMBERS TO SERVE AS VOLUNTEERS TO ASSIST IN PROCESSING APPLICATIONS.
