Blake’s Team Members, we know you have a #LOTALove for your communities! As part of the LOTA Heart Program we encourage you to volunteer and make them even stronger. Use this link to locate and sign up for local programs that match your interests and schedules.
In November, Blake’s wrapped up our collection drive in participation of KOATS for Kids. Starting October 16th many Blake’s LOTABURGER locations became drop-off sites for people to donate new coats of all sizes & ages. These coats were then sorted & delivered to school districts across New Mexico. This incredible donation event helps families in need stay warm during the cold winter months. We would like to thank everyone who stopped by to donate.
Blake’s had the opportunity to participate in a benefit bowling match supporting Silver Horizons.
Silver Horizons is a nonprofit that assists seniors & their families across New Mexico by providing groceries, helping cover household bills, & helping pay for minor home repairs. Silver Horizons is the only nonprofit organization in the area that focuses first on seniors. We are proud to have been granted the opportunity to support it.
Blake’s proudly sponsors KOAT 7’s KOATS for Kids program to ensure that children across New Mexico are warm during the cold winter months. In the 2022 holiday season, 60 Blake’s LOTABURGER locations all across the State acted as donation sites to collect and distribute new coats for kids in need.
On September 23rd, 2023, Blake's LOTABURGER was thrilled to return as the Presenting Sponsor for the Lobo Cancer Challenge - an annual community fundraising event in support of the UNM Comprehensive Cancer Center. We appreciated the opportunity to take part with all of the other Challengers!
The National Cancer Institute rating of Comprehensive has been given to only 53 cancer centers in the United States. The UNM Comprehensive Cancer Center is the only comprehensive rated center in New Mexico & is in the top 3% of elite cancer centers nationwide.
Let's UNITE AGAINST CANCER!
The Blake's Facility Department has partnered with the New Mexico Ramp Project to help build & install free ramps for older adults & people with mobility issues.

The Blake’s Team was excited to have the opportunity to volunteer their time at HopeWorks. HopeWorks is one of the largest homeless providers in New Mexico, working to help “heal homelessness” by providing access to day shelter, housing, & mental/behavioral health services. Learn more about the amazing work they do here.
On Friday, March 17th, 2023 our friends at New Mexico United helped us kick off our LOTA Heart Program at Roadrunner Food Bank in Albuquerque where members of both corporate offices were able to sort & pack food for those in need. We look forward to the many exciting opportunities to help serve our communities in 2023!
We are proud to continue our support of the LOBO Cancer Challenge. This year Blake's returned as title sponsor for the 6th consecutive year - every year since it began. 100% of the funds raised for this awesome event go to the UNM Comprehensive Cancer Center.
