McDonald’s for Tierra in Sunland! @ McDonald’s

Tickets

Oct 8 @ 12:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Two weeks ago the obituary Erik Sydow wrote in honor of his sister, Karen Sydow, who was a Tierra Associate for over three decades, was Tweeted by Daniel Miller, a journalist for the Los Angeles Times. Catching the attention of thousands of readers, Karen’s obituary went viral.

In addition to an unforgettable smile, Erik shared publicly that Karen was notably a big McDonald‘s fan, and one of the three words she knew how to say was “Donalds.”

Upon learning this, two local McDonald’s franchisees have decided to team up for restaurant fundraisers in Karen’s honor to support Tierra!

FRIDAY, OCT. 8th | 12 – 7pm

McDonald’s, 7950 Foothill Blvd, Sunland, CA 91040

McDonald’s Owner/Operator: Richard Bechguenturian Jr.

The owners and operators of both locations will donate 50% of the proceeds from fundraiser sales to Tierra del Sol. McDonald’s Southern California owner/operators will match 100% of donations up to $15,000. In honor of Karen’s favorite meal – a McDonald’s cheeseburger, fries, and a Coca-Cola – McDonald’s partners at The Coca-Cola Company will donate proceeds from every Coca-Cola beverage sold during the fundraisers. All donations will benefit Tierra del Sol!

Like so many of the men and women we serve, Karen Sydow’s life and journey are woven into the rich fabric of Tierra’s history. We hope you will come out and support Tierra’s mission by visiting one of the two locations mentioned above. Most importantly, your participation honors the life of a remarkable woman who, as her brother Erik so beautifully expressed, “never had wants or misgivings,” and supports Tierra’s programs and services that provide individuals with developmental disabilities the opportunities they deserve.
