The Role of Charity in Our PR Strategy: Anchoring Positivity in Charitable Actions
At Devils Pit Barbecue, our approach to public relations and handling criticism is deeply intertwined with our commitment to charitable endeavors. This philosophy is embodied by The Devils Pit Foundation, a testament to our founder, Lucifer’s, vision of a business that does more than serve exceptional barbecue—it serves the community.
Lucifer observed early on that while many charities sought financial support, there was often a lack of willingness to engage in true collaborative efforts. Moreover, the discovery that a significant portion of donations were consumed by administrative costs rather than reaching those in need sparked a profound question within Mammon, The King of Greed: Why was there such a disparity between public perception and the reality of how donations were used?
Determined to forge a different path, The Devils Pit Foundation was established not just as a charity, but as a proactive force ready to mobilize in times of crisis. Whether responding to local natural disasters or broader national emergencies, the foundation’s mission is clear: to provide immediate, tangible support in the form of nourishing meals to those affected by adversity, including displaced families, cleanup crews, and first responders.
