BBR ShopHouse Challenge

Brady, Brannon, & Rich Talent Agency (where Edible Skinny Editor Kat Thomas (that’s me) is the Director of Digital Media) is happy announce that they’ll be having another do-good-for-others event this Monday!

BBR clients, staff and friends helped us raise almost $3,000 at our December #BBRChipotleChallenge which financed assistive equipment for 7 courageous children facing physical/cognitive challenges.

 

Because we love children’s smiles just as much as casting director bookings, we bring you the #BBRShopHouseChallenge!!! (check out the stories of change!)

Courtesy of the most generous BBRer Shelley Phillips, we’re looking to raise even more moolah for My Gym’s Challenged America through ShopHouse Kitchen’s bold Southeast Asian flavors on Monday March 23^rd.

Just as before, we’ll be raising funds to purchase wheelchairs, feeding tubes, and other assistive devices for deserving MGCA applicants.  

So stop by BBR see our new expansion on Monday March 23rd from 1pm-2pm, have lunch on us (and with us), & pay-what-you-can to help these amazing kids.

No donation is too large…or too small. Really.

BBRer Asha Leo Trying Her First Hard Ever!

Super Talent Agency Brady, Brannon, and Rich (of which I also work in the Digital Media Department) held their first ever #BBRChipotleChallenge last Monday in the hope of raising $2,500 for the non-profit My Gym Challenged America Foundation (MGCA).  Well I’m happy to announce we rose OVER our goal with the final tally at $2,889 (Almost $3K!!!) that will purchase wheelchairs, feeding tubes, and other assistive devices for children facing physical & cognitive challenges!!!

BBRer Shelley Phillips and her Magical Card!

All of this was made possible by BBRer Shelley Philips who was given one of their magic Burritos for Life card (actually for a year, but still super awesome!).  The card which entitles her to free Chipotle or ShopHouse Kitchen for a year along with two free catered events for 100 people.  Since Shelley is an awesome generous Do-Gooder, she donated one of her hosted events to BBR so we could do this fabulous fundraiser to help some amazing and courageous kids in need around the Holidays!

In attendance for the one hour only pay-what-you—can #BBRChipotleChallenge were over a 100 BBRers including Asha Leo’s, model and host of Refinery 29’sStyle of There, (who had her first hard taco ever!) and Tania Gunadi of Disney XD's Penn Zero: Part Time Hero and Enlisted.  Numerous other BBRers took up the call to arms online allowing at least five more kids the gift of mobility this Holiday season!

Delicious Chipotle!
