Connecticut Dance Theatre (CDT) is partnering with Chili’s on Wednesday, June 13 to raise funds for CDT’s Scholarship Program for deserving children from the Greater Waterbury area. The fundraiser will occur from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at the Chili’s Restaurant located at 225, Union Street in Waterbury, Conn.
Supporters of CDT need to present an event voucher when dining at Chili’s on June 13 between the designated hours in order for CDT to receive 10 percent of the sales (excluding tax and gratuity) from CDT guests. “Give Back Night” is a fundraiser offered by Chili’s as a way to give back to not-for-profit organizations in the community. By promoting the “Give Back Night” to friends, families, and supporters the sponsoring organization will receive 10 percent of the sales from diners who present the event voucher during designated hours.
