The Bubbakoo\u2019s Burritos brand was built by their community involvement in partnership with local schools, and their commitment to the development of the markets served. It has been a theme that has made the company a favorite among Jersey Shore residents \u2013 especially young people.<\/p>\n<p>The Read It To Eat It Project will be comprised of two print marketing materials given to schools. The \u2018Book List Card,\u2019 displays five lines for hand-written book titles upon completion. Once five books are read, the teacher will sign the post card providing verification. The student will then receive a \u2018Free Student Meal Card\u2019 which will be attached to the Book List Card. Students will then bring in the cards for a Free Student Meal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited to inspire reading among children,\u201d said Bubbakoo\u2019s Burritos Co-Founder, Bill Hart. \u201cIt feels great to make a positive shift in the community, and delicious food has the power to be a great incentive. We are so excited to introduce this program while also encouraging continued learning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Beginning now, the Read It To Eat It Project will be redeemable at Bubbakoo\u2019s Burritos restaurants.
