Students share their own experiences
Here are some testimonials from students who have used CPK to host fundraisers for college clubs.
University of Colorado Boulder: UC Men’s Club Hockey Team
George, a member of the UC Men’s Club Hockey Team, said he wanted to host an event at CPK to spread his club’s name in the Boulder community. “We had a nice experience at CPK,” George said. “Overall it was a great team event with great food and drinks.”
Montclair State University: Delta Xi Delta
Delta Xi Delta at Montclair State University decided to host a CPK fundraiser to support its philanthropic goals. The sorority’s president Rachel said,
“It’s a super easy way to raise some money for our sorority’s philanthropy in addition to eating some great food or even trying something new. It’s another chance throughout an average week for our sisters to come together and enjoy some lunch or dinner together while raising money to donate to our favorite cause. We’ll definitely be back soon!”
Utah Valley University: UVU Social Work
Marisa, a member of UVU’s Social Work program said her group chose CPK because it was close to the university and other students could easily find it to stop by for the event. “Everyone had an enjoyable experience dining there and it was easy for those dining to have a portion of their meal donated to our club,” Marisa said.
