Jack, ‘Star-Advertiser’ Aid Kids
At a time when many of Hawaii’s nonprofit organizations are experiencing financial hardships, the local franchisee of Jack in the Box restaurants is stepping up with a $15,000 donation to Boys & Girls Club of Hawaii. This donation was partly funded through proceeds from purchases of Honolulu Star-Advertiser made at local Jack in the Box restaurants.
