August 17, 2012 // Franchising.com // Pollo Tropical® has the smarts on fundraising with an easy and delicious way for schools and other nonprofit groups to take advantage of fundraising!

Pollo Tropical Smart Savings Cards feature 10 discount offers on popular Pollo Tropical menu items, a $40 value in total. Students may sell the cards to their family, friends, neighbors and other supporters for just $1. The school or organization then keeps 100 percent of the card sales for their fundraising needs.

Featured on the cards are two-for-one offers on its ever-popular Quarter Chicken Meal, sandwich or wrap combos and TropiChillers®. The cards also include offers for a free small TropiChop® with the purchase of a drink and $3 off a Family Meal. Offers are good for only one per visit, at any company-owned Pollo Tropical location.

“The Pollo Tropical Smart Savings Card is an easy way for schools and nonprofit organizations to support their activities and provide supporters something valuable in return,” said Sandra Molina, Director of Marketing and Communications for Pollo Tropical.

How It Works

The first step is to visit www.pollotropical.com/community and complete and submit a Smart Savings Card request form. Once a school is approved and shipping fee is received, Pollo Tropical will mail the requested number of Smart Savings Cards to the school. The school is then responsible for distributing cards to the supporters and collecting the funds raised. The school receives 100 percent of the funds collected from the Smart Savings Cards.
