Toys for Tacos event to take place from November 01 to December 03, 2017
Texas Border Business
Taco Palenque is bringing the joy of the season to kids in need these holidays for the second year in a row! The Toys for Tacos toy drive was in Don Pancho’s heart, and with the help of all their customers and community, they collected close to 1,000 toys total in Laredo and the Rio Grande Valley last year.
As a thank you for their customer’s support, Taco Palenque gave one Free Taco (Bean & Cheese or Potato & Egg) for each toy collected. Toys for Tacos is an effort to give back to the community and all they need is your support.
This year’s goal is to collect 2,000 toys! Bring a brand new, unwrapped toy to any Taco Palenque in Laredo or the Rio Grande Valley. Tell the manager how many toys you are donating and Taco Palenque and Media Partners will give you a FREE TACO. One toy = One Free Bean & Cheese Taco, or Potato & Egg Taco for you.

You give and we give you a taco back as a token of our appreciation. The effort is to benefit Non-Profit Christmas Laredo and all Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley.
