(Newswire.net — September 11, 2013) Mesa, AZ — Proceeding the successful philanthropic bonding with Pas De Cristo, Tom’s BBQ at Mc Kellips reached out to help the needy through Sunshine Acres. Tom’s BBQ began their relationship with Sunshine Acres in December 2012. Sunshine Acres is a Mesa, Aizona based organization specializing in providing a wholesome Christian home for helpless children. Children who are separated from their parents are given a caring environment to grow up. Sunshine Acres helps these children establish a long term relationship with stable and loving parental figures and the organization is dedicated to preparing the children for a successful adult life.
Tom’s BBQ is known for their pink food truck- The Pig Rig. The pink truck is stocked with their best menu items and can be hired for all catering parties and corporate events. Once a month, Tom’s Pig Rig is rolled out to Sunshine Acres at Higley Road in Mesa, to serve food to the children. The kids scream with joy at the sight of the hot pink truck.
“We have heard so many good things about Sunshine Acres. I went there anticipating a refuge of juveniles with a need for something, but more on the dark side. Boy, I was wrong. I was amazed at how beautifully the atmosphere was designed for children. The place was fantastic and I immediately knew that Sunshine Acres, their staff and volunteers were handpicked by God Himself. I am really so happy and honored to be a part of their family. If you ever get a chance to tour Sunshine Acres, you will see that words can’t describe the awesomeness that is going on there” — Rick Pawlak, Co-owner of Tom’s BBQ and Owner of Tom’s Pig Rig.
The Sunshine Acres has been a home to over 1500 children since 1954. This faith-based mission was founded by Rev. Jim and Vera Dingman, with a passion to dedicate their lives to care for children who are hurting and helpless. Although Tom’s BBQ team considers their help a small drop in the ocean, their service goes a long way and lights up the children’s faces with bright smiles.
