The highly anticipated Utah Tacofest has chosen the Kennedy Jr. High After School Program as a chosen charity for the 2023 event. The Fathers & Families Coalition of Utah was also selected.
Each year, Utah Tacofest donates a portion of the proceeds from General Admission ticket sales to a deserving charity. The event recognizes that Kennedy Jr. High Afterschool Program strengthens and provides academic support to students in Kennedy Jr. High.
“Kennedy Jr High Afterschool Program prides ourselves in helping many students improve their grades, inspires them to attend college and pursue other career paths through our enrichment classes. In the last five years, we have reached hundreds of students in our tutoring classes, with teachers and youth counselors helping students individually. Our afterschool program students work hard each quarter with a GPA goal to earn a field trip, which the taco fest funds will be used to support,” said a statement from the school.
Utah Tacofest 2023 will take place on Saturday & Sunday, August 5th & 6th, from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm at Utah State Fair Park at 155 N 1000 W, Salt Lake City. Attendees can expect a wide variety of mouth-watering tacos, live music, engaging activities, and an overall celebration of the vibrant food culture in Utah.
