Baja Fresh Supports The Boy Scouts Of America

Eight Northern California Baja Fresh Locations to Participate

(Wednesday, February 25, 2004) - Baja Fresh Mexican Grill today announced it will offer eight of its locations in Northern California for a full day fundraiser for the Boy Scouts of America Santa Clara Council. On February 26th, from 11am - 9pm, the San Jose Blossom Hill, Bernal, Campbell, San Jose, Cupertino, Palo Alto, Sunnyvale and Santa Clara-Rivermark Baja Fresh restaurants will donate 15% of proceeds to this very important cause.

The Boy Scouts of America Santa Clara Council serves more than 11,500 young people in more than 400 packs, troops and posts. With more than 4,000 volunteers, it is one of the county's most successful community resources and one of the key factors in preparing its youth membership to make the right choices in life. Other programs and services offered by the Council include Ethics in Action, Learning for Life, and Operation First Class. Additionally, preventative programs such as Youth Protection and Child Abuse Prevention, Drugs: A Deadly Game, and Crime Prevention help stem the spread of destructive behaviors in our community. The Council serves all of Santa Clara County, except for the cities of Mountain View, Los Altos and Palo Alto.
