Around the world businesses of all types are doing their bit to make this Christmas a little brighter for families who will be doing it tough this year, and Hank’s Tattoo in Warsaw is a standout example of this.
Hank’s Tattoo is offering discount tattoos to all customers who contribute to their Toys for Tatts Toy Drive.
Clients can bring in a new unwrapped toy to the value of $50 or less, and the parlor will double this price of the toy and apply that value as a discount on their tattoo. So if the customer brings in a toy valued at $20, then they will get $40 off their tattoo cost.
According to the owner of Hank’s Tattoo, Hank Hernandez, families who receive the toys are recommended by customers, and they will also receive two pizzas from Pizza Hut, and a bag of homemade goodies.
Making the whole exercise even more fun, Hernandez’s brother-in-law, Rick Bradley, will be dressing up like Santa and delivering the toys with Hernandez, and several other family members, on Christmas Eve.
This is a very nice example of grassroots charity within a local community. A big thumbs up to Hank’s Tattoo and all the businesses who are making an effort to help others this Christmas.
