Statement Projects
A Good Egg Dining Group Restaurants are proud to pull together as one force to make an impact in the city we love. Each year, our concept committee
elects two new projects on which to focus our giving – in a big way. We call these projects our “Statement Projects”.
These are our highlighted passions for the year.
THE FOOD PEOPLE POP UP DINNER

TURNING THE TABLE ON HUNGER

Volunteer Commitment
We are committed to providing opportunities for our team to offer community support through volunteer time.
Each of our unique restaurant concepts chooses a benefactor close to their heart to contribute to throughout the year.
Come out and join us if the feeling strikes you…working together is always better than working apart!

TUCKER’S ONION BURGERS :: OK MESSAGES

SPORTS NUTRITION :: YOUTH SERVICES OF OK

Teaming up with YSOC to provide cooking classes allows the students to receive what we believe to be a vital life skill: the ability to prepare yourself a home cooked meal.
