Operator Interface: Do you give what you receive?

What charitable deeds does your street operation make to the local community? Donations, sponsorships, scholarships? If you have a location, are there causes you support outside of offering discounts or coupons?

Do you publicize these good works and, by proxy, give your business and the industry at large a better public image?

Are such donations just a luxury that only larger companies can afford? Can everyone give back in some way, regardless of size and overall health of the business?

Share your thoughts, words and deeds with us today.

Most that donate to charity don't need or want to advertise who they are. However, I do understand your point about the image boost that the coin-op biz could get from this.

Look at what David Gottlieb started and then Alvin Gottlieb carried on with the Gottlieb Memorial Hospital & health care organization. Through all of it there was never a mention of it on the Gottlieb games and advertising materials.
