Now through April 30th, Eleven81 in the Market at Oakland in Mount Pleasant has partnered with YEScarolina to raise money through the restaurant's Kitchen Karma program.
YEScarolina is a local nonprofit organization that empowers students in South Carolina to create businesses, grow wealth, and impact economic development in their community through their entrepreneurship programs. Proceeds from this partnership will benefit YEScarolina's upcoming summer programs and Lowcountry Summer Pitch Contest for participating student entrepreneurs in Charleston.
The Kitchen Karma program began at the Eleven81's owners' first restaurant concept, SOL Southwest Kitchen & Tequila Bar. The restaurants partner with a local charity organization to donate $1 from every featured Kitchen Karma item sold throughout the program's duration.
The featured items benefiting YEScarolina on Eleven81's menu are the Jumbo Bavarian Pretzel and Cooper River Golden Ale Draft Beer (pictured above right). $1 of each purchased through April 30th, 2021 will be donated to YEScarolina.
“Small businesses and the entrepreneurs that lead them are the heart of our community,” Eleven81 co-owner David Clark said. “We're very excited about partnering with YEScarolina, an organization that teaches our young people how to be leaders through entrepreneurship right here in our own backyard in Mount Pleasant.”
Since its inception, the owners of Eleven81 say they have donated over $60,000 to nonprofit organizations here in Charleston through the Kitchen Karma program.
Eleven81 is located at 1181 Oakland Market Road in Mount Pleasant.
