Bojangles is honoring America’s heroes by inviting guests to give back with every visit. From now through Dec. 13, participating Bojangles restaurants are raising funds for the Mae and George Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation Scholarship Program, which provides scholarships for undergraduate degrees and accredited trade school programs to the children of Gold Star families, fallen first responders and catastrophically injured veterans and first responders.
Depending on the restaurant, guests can support the campaign at checkout by rounding up their purchase, making a donation or doing both. Donors can give $1 or $5 and add their names to flags displayed in the restaurant, creating a visible show of community support. Those who donate $1 will receive a coupon for a free Bo-Berry Biscuit, and those who donate $5 will receive a coupon for a free Sausage Biscuit, both redeemable on their next visit.
“Supporting military families is a cause close to our foundation’s heart,” said Ken Reynolds, Executive Director of the Bojangles Foundation. “This holiday season, we’re inviting our guests to help honor those who served by investing in their children’s futures, and every round-up and donation brings us closer to that goal.”
“Our scholarship program carries the names of my parents, Mae and George Siller, who taught all seven of us that you take care of the people who take care of you,” said Frank Siller, Chairman and CEO of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. “These children have already sacrificed more than anyone should have to. Thanks to Bojangles and its guests, every dollar raised this holiday season helps these children build the future they deserve. That’s what doing good looks like, and we are so grateful.”
This is just the latest campaign in Bojangles’ ongoing commitment to supporting the military community, following its summer fundraiser in honor of America 250, in which the brand and its guests raised more than $519,000 for military families and veterans through Folds of Honor and the Veteran Golfers Association.
The Tunnel to Towers campaign runs through Dec. 13 at participating Bojangles restaurants. For more information about Bojangles’ community impact, visit www.bojangles.com/foundation.
