SERVICE, WITH A SIDE OF SMILES

At Desert de Oro Foods (DDO), the classic Golden Rule remains an integral part of who we are and how we show up as a business. We recognize that with every new restaurant, there’s a growing community with real needs behind it. Our goal every day is to help our neighbors thrive through good food, financial support and hands-on help.

We feel true fulfillment when contributing to the greater good.

Hospitality with Heart

There are numerous causes near and dear to us. Over the years, we’ve become regularly involved in supporting local emergency relief efforts and organizations, including:
  • hospitals
  • afterschool programs
  • regional medical centers
  • sports leagues
  • teen centers
  • emergency services
  • food banks
  • chambers of commerce
  • children’s charities
  • cancer centers
  • schools
In addition, we’re proud to participate in national fundraising initiatives connected to each of our brands: Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut.
