Over Easy Extends Partnership with Phoenix Children’s Foundation
Local Breakfast Concept Pledges to Raise $500,000 Over the Next Four Years
 |
Local breakfast restaurant Over Easy is proud to announce the continuation of its philanthropic partnership with Phoenix Children’s, whose mission is to advance hope, healing and the best healthcare for children and their families.
Over Easy will continue its year-round commitment to supporting Phoenix Children’s through the 'Kids Helping Kids' initiative, where a portion of proceeds from every kids menu item sold at all locations will benefit the hospital. Building on the success of raising $124,531 in 2024, the 2025 campaign will run through December 31, featuring a variety of fundraising efforts throughout the year, including the signature ‘Dollars for a Dozen’ fundraiser in April.
Having pledged to raise up to $500,000 over the next four years, Over Easy will also be naming the Gathering Café and Maker’s Space within the newly remodelled Child Life Zone this spring. The Child Life Zone, known as the "Happiest Place in the Hospital," welcomes thousands of patients, families, and volunteers, creating an atmosphere of transformation through creativity and collaboration. An official announcement with more details will be shared in the coming months.
“We are incredibly proud of the success we saw in 2024, and we’re excited to continue working with Phoenix Children’s to support their mission,” says Brian Terpay, COO of Over Easy. “We look forward to raising even more money in 2025 to make a lasting impact on children and families in our area.”
All funds raised throughout 2025 will go towards Child Life and the Zone at Phoenix Children’s. The Child Life Zone is a unique, state-of-the-art therapeutic space where kids can be kids. It is a place designed for playing, creating, learning and connecting with others. The child life specialists work with children at any age or stage of development, using developmentally appropriate language and play to help kids understand unfamiliar or complex terms, conditions and procedures. With the help of these specialists and an area like The Child Life Zone, kids and families are supported and healed by more than just medicine.
“We are truly grateful for the partnership and commitment from Over Easy,” says Steve Schnall, senior vice president and chief development officer of Phoenix Children’s Foundation. “The child-centred focus of their campaign makes for an incredible collaboration that exceeds our expectations at every turn. We are thrilled to continue this successful partnership and look forward to what we can do together.”
