OTTO South Boston’s ‘Tips for Kids’ program raises funds for local children’s organizations

Giving back has always been part of OTTO’s DNA since day one. When OTTO Southie (416 W Broadway) opened, the business model was designed to pay above average wages so that all tips could be donated to local youth-focused charities.

As a result, OTTO Southie has raised over $72,000 since March 2020.

Donation recipients include:
* South Boston Community Health Center’s Youth Ambassadors Program (YAP), a South Boston resource for teens to explore the realms of health, art, and community service.

* Condon Community Center, enhancing the quality of life for Boston’s residents by supporting children, youth and families through a wide range of programs and services.

* Edgerley Family Boys and Girls Club of South Boston, helping young people reach their full potential by providing a safe haven filled with hope and opportunity.

OTTO Southie will be featuring a different organization each quarter.

We owe a ton of thanks to the OTTO Southie staff and the generosity of our customers for making these donations possible. We know that, now more than ever, charities and community organizations need additional support to continue offering the services they provide. We’re grateful that OTTO Southie has been in a position to help, and we hope to continue this tradition through 2021 and beyond.
