Happy Lunar New Year

Mark your calendars for January 29, 2025, as we ring in the Year of the Snake! Lunar New Year is a festive time to gather with family, friends, and communities to welcome new beginnings. In true tradition, it’s a celebration filled with vibrant festivals, joy, and, of course, the sharing of lucky foods to spread fortune and happiness for the year ahead.


Since 2007, Panda Express has been changing kids’ health to change the future at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals by raising millions of dollars throughout the year. Associates ask guests to round up at the register, with every dollar donated creating a ripple effect in the community.


This Lunar New Year, we invite you to visit your local Panda Express to celebrate and donate. In 2024 alone, millions were raised to fund programs and initiatives that help kids thrive. Additionally, many new Panda Cares Centers of Hope spaces were able to open. These dedicated spaces are designed to provide a safe and comforting place where kids can be kids again while they receive the care they need to become the future leaders, inventors, and doctors of tomorrow!

Locally Panda associates and guests in Northeast Kansas donated an amazing $24,208 in 2024!

These donations stay local and are designated for children’s services and programs and help fund what’s needed most for them, like critical life-saving treatments and innovative research.

Thank you, Panda Express, and Happy Lunar New Year! Let’s welcome the Year of the Snake with hope, health, and happiness for all
