Wawa review: Wawa does not recognize special needs children

after email after email and website after website and phone call after phone call...WAWA fell thru. I have a child who is Autistic and because of that birthday parties outside of familiar places is rare. So this year I decided to bring the party to his school so that the other special needs kids can be a part of it.

I contacted Chuck E. Cheese corporate, and they were gracious enough to donate a cake, hats, plates and their MASCOT Chuck E. I also reached out to Chick-fil-a who graciously donated platers of chicken nuggets, small breads and waffle fries since this is what most Autistic children eat. Well, WAWA's response was "At this time, we’re unable to offer support, as our donations are reserved for nonprofit organizations whose initiatives align with our three key focus areas: Health, Hunger, and Everyday Heroes. We are not able to provide donations to individuals or for personal events." I guess special needs children are not valued by Wawa.

I did reach out to the WAWA right next door from their school (Joppa MD), and they said they would have loved to, but their hands are tied and that Corporate had to approve it but apparently their public relations dept did not. Sad but true story. It's okay though. Chuck E and Chick-fil-a came through and now I know NOT to get my next company catering order from Wawa.
