BelAir Cantina helps share the magic of YMCA Camp Minikani

MILWAUKEE –BelAir Cantina, a Mexican-fusion restaurant famous for its tacos, tequila and fresh ingredients, announced today that it will partner with YMCA Camp Minikani on its newest Powered by Tacos charity fundraising campaign.

BelAir Cantina is committed to serving every community in which they operate and each year, the restaurant selects a local nonprofit organization as their “Powered by Tacos” partner. Together with BelAir executive chef and co-owner Noe Zamora, members from the charity work together to create and name a custom taco of their very own, which is featured on BelAir’s menu for six months. The signature taco is available at all BelAir Cantina locations, including its Madison restaurant.

The proceeds from the specialty taco go to support the selected organization and past partner organizations have included the Wauwatosa Skate Park, the Urban Ecology Center and The Ronald McDonald House. The amount raised for each charity varies from year-to-year, and so far, BelAir has raised more than $140,000 for its partner organizations.

This year’s taco will be called the “Minikani Magic.” The taco is a sweet and savory mix of garlic soy marinated chicken, roasted corn salsa, charred marshmallow, crema and more. All six BelAir locations will also have a ‘taco tracker’ to keep count of the number of tacos sold and restaurants will compete for prizes to help encourage sales.
