bartaco

at bartaco, we believe that great food goes hand in hand with doing good. in 2024, we put this belief into action, making a meaningful impact through initiatives like our #givingtaco program, donations, auction items, and meals for those in need. thanks to your support, we donated over $750,000 through #givingtaco, partnering with organizations like 4ocean PBC and love light & melody, providing meals to local communities, and supporting causes that inspire us! for us, giving back is embedded in our DNA – it’s about showing up for the people and places we care about. thank you to our guests and partners for making this possible. together, we’re turning bold flavors and a passion for community into something truly meaningful!

at bartaco, we know that the restaurant industry can be fast-paced and high-intensity—and we’re committed to creating a culture where our team members can thrive, not just survive. that’s why we partnered with Headspace to bring stigma-free, accessible mental healthcare to our teammates. from guided meditations to personalized therapy, headspace helps us meet our diverse team’s needs, from new grads to seasoned managers. how’s it working? we’ve seen growing engagement, 5-star ratings from clinicians, and powerful stories of lives positively impacted. but the best ROI? knowing our people feel supported every step of the way. huge thanks to Scott R. from our team and Alex Barker from the headspace team for all of your hard work and collaboration in making this happen! want to learn how bartaco is leading the way in team care? check out the full case study here: https://lnkd.in/gVFenaqT
