Food truck company donates to Children’s Hospital

One food truck company didn't mind making less money today. Shindigs Catering donated 10 percent of their food truck sales to Children's Hospital today between 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

The event is part of the Miracle Makers for Children's program, a year-round statewide campaign designed to increase awareness and funding support for the nationally-recognized specialized programs and services offered by Children's of Alabama.

As a Miracle Maker, Shindigs Catering joins numerous stores and restaurants across Alabama in supporting Children's through a variety of fundraising efforts.

"As a not-for-profit hospital, we depend on the support of our donors, corporate sponsors and friends to help meet the ever-changing healthcare needs of patients at Children's of Alabama," Janie Jones, Community Development Coordinator for Children's, said in a release.

"We are excited to have Shindigs Catering as one of our Miracle Makers. Every dollar that is raised stays in Alabama and has a direct impact on our patients, families and the community. Community support is essential to making Children's what it is today and what it will be tomorrow," Jones said.
