Lon Nichols is the director of human resources for the restaurant.

"It's just a way for the community to embrace the importance of Hispanic culture," he said.

"A lot of the children in Immokalee don't have the opportunity to go out to a college or university setting. Those funds will help our program so they will have the ability to go there," she said.
