Kitchen Karma is back at SOL Southwest Kitchen & Tequila Bar in Mount Pleasant and Summerville. From May 1st to June 12th, the restaurants will donate a portion of proceeds to First Tee - Greater Charleston, an organization that offers local youth development programs.
SOL will donate $1 from every Kitchen Karma menu sold to support youth golf access and interpersonal skill-building initiatives at 7 golf courses, 41 schools, and various community centers throughout Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester counties. The menu items include the Spicy Citrus Peach Margarita, Peach by the Beach Cocktail, Under the Bourbon Sun Cocktail, Oaxacan Sunset Cocktail, Peach Nojito Mocktail, and the Drunken Beef Nachos.
SOL has raised nearly $100,000 for local causes since the launch of Kitchen Karma in 2013.
“It has been a way for us to give back,” said restaurant owner David Clark. “Our only requirement when choosing a charitable organization is that the funds raised stay local. First Tee - Greater Charleston is a perfect partner because they provide character-building programs for thousands of children each year right here in Charleston, and they aren’t just teaching golf, they are empowering leaders that will shape the future of our community.”
