The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors recently selected Melt Gourmet Cheeseburgers as the county’s Outstanding Corporate Volunteers for 2013. These annual awards honor individuals, groups, organizations and businesses for their extraordinary volunteer efforts in the community.
Owners Steve and Debbie Hancotte and volunteer employees at Melt dedicate their time to promote animal adoptions in the area. They also collect donations for local animal service organizations.
Poster-size photographs of adoptable animals decorate the restaurant’s walls. Information about how to adopt animals is shared at the restaurant with Melt customers.
Since opening in April 2012, Melt has donated more than $6,000 to animal groups and promoted 125 adoptable animals.
