/EINPresswire.com/ -- ORLANDO, FL--(Marketwired - September 05, 2017) - In light of the recent devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey in Texas, Tijuana Flats is hosting an in-store fundraising campaign benefiting hurricane victims on Wednesday, September 6, 2017.

Tijuana Flats is asking guests to participate in assisting with hurricane relief efforts by making a donation at any Tijuana Flats location. The restaurant's Just in Queso Foundation®, established "just in case" you need us, will automatically match up to $15,000 in funds raised by patrons.

"We understand the amount of work that is required of businesses and individuals to come back from a catastrophe like this," said Larry Ryback, chief executive officer at Tijuana Flats. "While the people of Houston and the surrounding areas impacted by Hurricane Harvey undoubtedly face a long road to recovery, we hope that the funds raised during this campaign provide some relief in the challenging weeks and months ahead."
