The Apple Gold Group, a franchisee of Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill and Bar, is proud to have helped the Bertie Alumni Community Association (BACA) Educational and Community Outreach Program raise over $1,000 at a recent Flapjack Fundraiser. Proceeds raised will go towards the scholarships for high school students. "Providing students with the gift of education is a cause that deserves support and attention," said Michael Olander, President and CEO of the Apple Gold Group. "We would like to thank the BACA for partnering with us to raise funds for this worthy cause and everyone from the community who joined us on July 21st." The BACA fundraiser was hosted on July 21, 2012, at the Applebee’s restaurant located at 8701 Brier Creek Pkwy., Raleigh, NC. The organization sold 96 tickets and an additional $371 in donations was collected. 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 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.
