North Carolina Restaurants

"Though we can't do everything, we must do something.... Sometimes our greatest work is inspiring others to do their greatest work."

— Erika Harlacher, Owner ChowdaHeads Restaurant

"If I have the choice of dining at a restaurant with great food or a restaurant with great food and a generous heart, my decision is easy. It made me a repeat customer. A quarter for a glass of water and the chance to help transform lives by providing clean drinking water. How wonderful!"

— Kris Risendal, Customer

"Living in Peru for a month on a mission trip, and experiencing firsthand how difficult it is to be without water, taught us how precious water is. This QH2O project is so worthwhile, I am grateful to be able to give a quarter for the cause at our area restaurants. Thank you for starting the project!"

— Elaine and Wayne Crigler, Customer

"It is so exciting and heartwarming to hear my 3-year-old asking if we have our quarters for clean water every time we tell him we are going out to a restaurant."

— Brenda Douglas, Customer

"Partnering with QH2O is an easy way for restaurant owners and their customers to make an immediate impact on the lives of those with limited natural resources. What better way to give back to a community both locally and globally."

— Paul M. Stone, CAE, President & CEO, North Carolina Restaurant and Lodging Association

"QH2O was simple to initiate and my staff enjoy being a part of helping bring water to those who really need it. It's a great way to help your staff feel like they aren't just waiting tables they are doing good in the world."

— Joey McClure, Owner Clawson's/Aqua Restaurant
