We pride ourselves on staying involved in the community. From supporting local charity organizations to arranging food giveaways during the pandemic, sharing food is our passion. That’s why we are so proud of our staff who took extra time and effort to prepare over 2000 fresh meals yearly.
Throughout our journey, we learned firsthand about the alarming issue of food waste and how it affects our environment. From stocked warehouses, grocery stores, and restaurant kitchens to our pantries, we believe there is enough food to end hunger. We will continue working in the community, as sharing great food is rewarding and necessary. It has been our honor to be involved in such organizations as Special Olympics, Dallas Casa, Scottish Rite Early Childhood PTA, Volunteers of Flight Museum, and many more. We have been mainly involved with the Gatehouse of Grapevine, the Ark of Hope, North Texas Food Bank, and Scottish Rite.
We are dedicated to doing good for other people in our community.
The Gatehouse is a unique, privately funded, supportive living community for single women and mothers ready to face constant change, domestic violence, underemployment, homelessness, poverty, or other crises to heal and achieve self-sufficiency. The Gatehouse program lends a helping hand to aspiring, disadvantaged working women, enabling them to build a foundation for lasting independence.
We worked with this notable organization in 1992. They focus on rehabilitating troubled young men into well-educated and productive members of society.
In 2019, at DFW Airport, we met Mr. Pugh, founder of the Ark of Hope. Team Bugatti has supported this organization by preparing meals and filling pantries through donations. The 301st Fighter Wing-Carswell Chief’s Group from Fort Worth also joined us. During the pandemic, we organized food giveaways for furloughed workers and low-income families, along with monthly Teacher Appreciation lunches.
With Mr. Tom Black and Ms. Jane Walters, we launched dinner events for the North Texas Food Bank and hosted appreciation lunches for volunteers.
A memorable moment was serving a homemade Thanksgiving dinner at Dallas Parkland Hospital in 1993. Our latest initiative, Howdy Ice Cream, provides job opportunities for individuals with intellectual disabilities, as we continue to fight food insecurity.
