Burger King donates $250K to ‘Da Vida Caminando con Raymond’
Burger King’s donation is the result of the sale of the flashlight key chains, symbolic T-shirts and the donations collected in donation boxes available in all local restaurants.
For the fifth consecutive year, Burger King has shown its support to “Da Vida Caminando con Raymond” delivering a check for $250,000 to contribute to Puerto Rican TV personality Raymond Arrieta’s cause.
Last week, Arrieta walked across several Puerto Rico towns to raise funds to help the Puerto Rican League Against Cancer and its Dr. Isaac González Martínez Oncology Hospital. It was the 10th year of the event.
