Taco Time Northwest, a Northwest-based, family-owned Mexican quick service restaurant, is now accepting orders for its 2012 Taco Time Coupon Book fundraising program, which has raised more than $1.5 million for local non-profit organizations since its inception in 2004.

The coupon books are free for local registered non-profit organizations including athletic teams, youth groups, and schools, and are distributed on a first come, first serve basis. Books contain $5 worth of savings at Taco Time NW restaurants and are sold for $1, with all proceeds going directly to the non-profit organization.

“Through the coupon book program, Taco Time NW has helped more than 600 local non-profits, including the Ballard Northwest Senior Center, Maple Valley Youth Symphony, and Boy Scout Troop 39,” says Gretchen Everett, marketing and advertising director of Taco Time NW. “We’ve been committed to our community since Taco Time NW was founded almost 50 years ago, and the coupon books are our way to help local organizations reach their fundraising goals.”
