Freddy's Partners with Folds of Honor for May Fundraiser

Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers®, a prominent fast-casual restaurant chain, has announced its collaboration with the nonprofit organization, Folds of Honor, for a noteworthy fundraising initiative this May. From May 1 through May 31, patrons at Freddy's locations will be given the option to contribute to Folds of Honor by rounding up their in-restaurant or drive-thru orders to the nearest dollar. This program not only offers a simple way for customers to give back while enjoying their favorite meals but also supports a significant cause that aims to help families of fallen service members.

What is Folds of Honor?

Folds of Honor is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has been in operation since 2007. The organization provides educational scholarships to the spouses and children of military personnel who have either died or sustained disabilities while serving. In 2022, their mission expanded to include support for first responders' families as well. The initiative plays a crucial role in ensuring that these families receive the necessary educational resources and opportunities, thereby facilitating a better future for the next generation. With a four-star rating from Charity Navigator and Platinum status on GuideStar, Folds of Honor is recognized for its transparency and effective use of donations.

How the Fundraiser Works

During the month of May, when customers visit Freddy's, they can choose to round up their total at the register. For example, if a customer’s bill is $9.70, they can round it up to $10.00. The extra $0.30 will directly support Folds of Honor, contributing to scholarships aimed at educating the children and dependents of America's fallen and disabled service members. This initiative not only allows customers to enjoy Freddy's signature offerings—like their cooked-to-order steakburgers, all-beef hot dogs, and freshly churned frozen custard treats—but also to play a part in a larger mission that benefits those who have sacrificed for their country.

The Impact of Your Support

The scholarships provided by Folds of Honor are used to grant educational support that can cover private school tuition or tutoring for K-12 students, as well as post-secondary education costs. This month-long campaign represents an incredible opportunity for guests to make a difference in the lives of these families while indulging in delicious food. Freddy's commitment to community service, demonstrated through this partnership, showcases how combining business with philanthropy can create meaningful change.
