Irresistable not only describes TAMPICO's beverages, but also their attitude towards philanthropy. On October 25 a 2 p.m. over 80 employees from TAMPICO  Beverages, including their CEO and several members of their Executive Staff, came to TACOLCY to give back to the center. The generous group donated their time, resources and energy to replanting various gardens on TACOLCY's grounds. They mulched, weeded, planted and more, so the Liberty City Communty can continue to enjoy a park that literally blooms with life.

If that wasn't enough, TAMPICO also assembled and donated a beautiful wooden bench to the center.

According to TAMPICO CEO Scott Miller, the visit to TACOLCY is part of a new initiative for the company's new slogan which they arrived in Miami with, "Envision the Future." Miller said he sees that future as inclusive of events like the garden project at TACOLCY. 

"All of the Tampico Team were enriched by our experience with the TACOLCY organization. Our time with the children and the staff at TACOLCY was an honor for all of us at Tampico Beverages," Miller said. "This event was our second one in total, but we hope for many opportunities in communities all around."

His sentiment was echoed by his Executive Vice President, Mark Kent who wants to keep in touch with TACOLCY, and his Midwest Director Steve Davis.

"Overall the experience was phenomenal. Your [TACOLCY] staff is great, very passionate and hard working. Seeing them interact with all the kids was very rewarding. The experience we had at TACOLCY was very rewarding and we will remember this forever," Kent said.

"The time spent at Tacolcy was enlightening. I love the idea that the kids can learn hands on with nature by planting trees and growing vegetables in TACOLCY’s very own garden. I am proud that Tampico was able to help by donating time and resources to this cause. It’s going to be fun to see what these kids do with these experiences and how they use it in life…. We might have future chefs & conservationists," Davis remarked.
