LIVINGSTON, N.J., Nov. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Spectrum360 is proud to announce that it was selected as the beneficiary of this year's Big Give, an annual day of giving hosted by a longtime community partner of ours, Salad House. On Friday, June 6, 100% of proceeds from all Salad House locations were donated to Spectrum360. The community raised nearly $50,000, and with additional support from Salad House's corporate team, the total donation reached $50,000 to benefit Spectrum360's programs and services for individuals with autism and related challenges.
This year's Big Give marks a milestone in the growing partnership between Spectrum360 and Salad House. The relationship began in 2021, when the parents of a Spectrum360 student—close friends of Salad House founders—approached the restaurant about supporting Spectrum360's Walk for a Lifetime event. That initial collaboration has since evolved into a strong, values-driven partnership centered on inclusion, empowerment, and community support.
"The Big Give isn't just a day, it's who we are," shares Joey Cioffi, CEO and founder of Salad House. "At Salad House, we believe success means using our platform to make a real difference in people's lives. When every location, every team member, and every guest come together for something bigger than ourselves, that's when our mission truly comes alive. Seeing firsthand how incredible Spectrum360 is reminds us exactly why we do it."
Funds raised through the Big Give will meet the demands of those we all care about, providing more enrichment activities to Spectrum360 students and adults with autism and related challenges, as well as further supporting our current programs, such as mentored employment, community-based instruction outings, travel training, vocational training, and more.
"We're incredibly grateful to the Salad House team for their ongoing belief in our mission," said Ken Berger, CEO of Spectrum360. "The Big Give is more than just a fundraiser—it's a celebration of what's possible when purpose-driven businesses and nonprofits come together to support a common cause."
Spectrum360 extends heartfelt thanks to Salad House and to every community member who came out in support on June 6.
