It’s Backpack Bash Time
School may have just ended for the summer, but COSILOVEYOU is ramping up for another great year with the BackPack Bash backpackbash.com to help distribute over 12,000 new backpacks to children throughout El Paso County on two consecutive Saturdays, July 27th & Aug 3rd at five different locations. Super Quality Cleaners will be partnering again this year with Pikes Peak State Zoology to meet the children and families with some “friendly reptiles” at Grand Mountain School, 11060 Fontaine Blvd., on August 3rd from 9 a.m. to noon.
Here’s How Our Customers can Help?
Drop off a NEW backpack only from June 15 through July 20 at any of our nine locations. Any customer that drops off a backpack will receive a $10 voucher (one per customer) toward your next dry cleaning or laundry as a “thank you” from Super Quality Cleaners. We really appreciate your support to help the children of El Paso County have a good start to the next school year.
A Taste of Tri-Lakes Cares – May 15
Super Quality Cleaners was a “golden spoon” sponsor for the second year for this fundraising event for Tri-Lakes Cares (https://tri-lakescares.org/) celebrating this nonprofit’s 40th anniversary. Since 1984 this organization has been meeting the needs of Northern El Paso County’s economically disadvantaged residents.
This year’s event was hailed as the “biggest and best” yet. The culinary event in support of Tri-Lakes Cares challenged local chefs and restaurants to compete in a Chopped-style food competition with items from their food pantry including a “surprise ingredient.” Uva’s Wine Bar was voted “Judges’ Favorite.” The event was held for the first time at Spruce Mountain Events in Larkspur to a sell-out crowd of 400. This year was also the first year that Tri-Lakes Cares had an up to $50,000 match challenge donation. For the first time, the organization also had a paddle raise to help ensure that they would meet their $100,000 plus sponsorships. If you attended, don’t forget to use your coupons from the goody bag at any of our nine locations.
