Organizer Even Stevens
Organizer of Givestock Ogden 2017
Even Stevens is a craft-casual restaurant with a cause. Founded in Salt Lake City in 2014 with a mission to end hunger by inviting guests to eat to give, Even Stevens has grown from 1 restaurant to 13, and by the end of 2017, we will have expanded to 4 states.
For every sandwich we sell, we donate one to a nonprofit partner. Each of our stores is partnered at a local level with four diverse non-profits to maximize impact in our communities. At the end of each month, we tally up our sandwich sales and donate the same number to our non-profit partners through our food wholesaler, Sysco. Our non-profits are then able to select from a list of over 50 wholesome ingredients and receive fresh product directly to their doorstep. This program allows our partners to order food as they need it while reallocating funds towards critical programs aimed at improving the lives of community members in need.
In January of 2017 we reached a monumental milestone: 1 million sandwiches donated!
