Leloca, a geo-targeting deal iPhone and Android app which offers real-time discounts at NYC restaurants, retailers and spas, is partnering with Fresh Youth Initiatives to support their mission to provide youth with the needed support, encouragement, experience, and life skills to show that young people, given the chance, can be strong and positive change agents in their community and in their own lives.Recently, FYI’s youth participants brought food and aid to those affected by Hurricane Sandy. Each time a dining deal is secured on Leloca from January 15th to 31st, Leloca will donate $1 towards the charity, essentially splitting its revenue with Fresh Youth Initiatives. Leloca allows NYC diners and shoppers to try a new restaurant, shop, or spa at a big discount (typically 30-50% off), while knowing that they are supporting a local charity with a crucial mission at the same time. The deals are free and require no purchase to download.
