AMARILLO, Texas (KAMR/KCIT) — Texas Roadhouse in Amarillo and Bubba’s 33 have partnered together to host a fundraiser in which 100% of all profits on Feb. 5 will benefit the American Tinnitus Association and honor Texas Roadhouse’s late founder, Kent Taylor.
Organizers noted that through March 31, Texas Roadhouse and Bubba’s 33 will donate an additional 10% made from the online sales of all gift cards to the ATA.
Tinnitus, according to organizers, is commonly known as “ringing in the ears” and affects more than 26 million adults in the US. Those with the condition often experience different perceptions of sound including buzzing, hissing, whistling, swooshing, and clicking.
“As we pursue our mission to promote relief, prevention and find cures for tinnitus, we are grateful for the ongoing support of Texas Roadhouse,” said Sara K. Downs, ATA interim executive director.
“By supporting ATA, Texas Roadhouse and our family of employees honor the life and vision of our founder, Kent Taylor, who was passionate about helping others,” said Texas Roadhouse CEO and President Jerry Morgan. “The Texas Roadhouse-ATA partnership is driven by the heartfelt desire to ensure that everyone is aware of tinnitus, its prevention and what can be done to manage it.”
