The Apple Gold Group, franchisee of Applebee’s restaurants in North Carolina, Oklahoma and Arkansas, is proud to have helped The Arc of Cabarrus County raise over $1,200 in just two hours at a recent Flapjack Fundraiser. All proceeds raised will be used to sponsor the organization’s Specific Assistance Fund, which provides medical equipment, home improvements and wheelchairs to persons who have developmental disabilities.

 

“The Apple Gold Group continues to support local community groups and non-profit programs,” said Michael Olander, President and CEO of Apple Gold Group. “This is a wonderful organization and we are proud to have helped raise funds and awareness for their mission.”

 

The Arc of Cabarrus County Flapjack Fundraiser was hosted on April 17, 2010 by the Applebee’s restaurant located at 1240 US Hwy 29, Concord, NC. The group sold 175 tickets to the event. Breakfast included a short stack of pancakes, sausage, milk, juice and coffee.

 

Applebee’s is proud to partner with any local non-profit organization as a way to raise money for their cause. From ticket sales to event-day staff, the breakfasts are managed by the non-profit organization with the assistance of Applebee’s employee volunteers. Breakfasts can be held on any Saturday or Sunday morning, and cost the organization around $2 a meal. The Applebee’s Flapjack Fundraisers represent the restaurant chain’s latest efforts to remain active within its local neighborhood.
