Culver’s Day of Giving for Deputy Jon Samuelson

On Thursday, June 11th, the Culver's restaurant in La Porte will be donating 50% of all sales for the entire day to Deputy Jon Samuelson.

The Culver's of La Porte partners with over 100 non-profit organizations per year for fundraising events, with a particular focus on food banks, the FFA and the Salvation Army. These local partnerships are driven by La Porte Culver's operating partner, Bill Romstadt. Bill is also Deputy Samuelson's father-in-law.

After 10 years of giving back to the local community, this event has a personal connection.

Please consider dining at Culver's on June 11th and 50% of your bill will be donated to Deputy Jon Samuelson.
