Local Business Involvement

Each Full Moon Margarita Madness runs from 4pm to 1am in our lounge and is hosted by a Margaritas employee. Throughout the event, the host promotes all participating businesses and organizations. Businesses contributing a grand prize are promoted in-house for the entire month leading up to the event and are highlighted on our prominently displayed “Donor Boards.” Participating businesses also have the satisfaction of being involved in a community effort to support local charities. Getting involved in the Full Moon events at Margaritas is an excellent way to support a worthy cause, participate in good, clean fun and share with a captive audience exactly what your business offers.

Each restaurant donates a portion of the evening’s lounge and bar sales to a local charity. Charities are encouraged to spread the word through their organization and network via newsletters, press releases and word of mouth to raise awareness and increase turnout (and increase the donation). Representatives of the charities are often on hand during the evening to offer support, have fun and answer questions regarding their cause.

It’s a truly unique, exciting event that benefits many wonderful and worthy organizations.

If you would like to submit a charity for consideration, please fill out the online application and we’ll add you to our list for consideration.

Please note, submitting your request is not a guarantee of commitment on our part. We receive hundreds of requests a year and try our best to accommodate as many as possible, but with only four charities per restaurant per year, opportunities are limited.
