On Saturday, June 8, Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill and
Bar of Windham opened its doors to local firefighters for a Tip-A-Firefighter
fundraiser. Members of the Windham Fire Department served as ‘celebrity
waiters’ at Applebee’s for the fundraiser, with 100% of their tips donated
directly to Muscular Dystrophy Association. The event raised more than $1,000
for Muscular Dystrophy Association, which aims to make a difference in the
lives of local children faced with the challenges of muscle-debilitating diseases.
The International Association of Fire Fighters has shown
unwavering commitment to defeating muscular dystrophy and related
life-threatening diseases since 1954, with the Windham Fire Department
participating annually to help raise funds. Apple American Group, the largest
Applebee’s franchisee in the country, who own and operate Applebee’s locations
throughout New England including the Applebee’s of Windham, pledges to assist
those less fortunate and support those institutions that enhance the quality of
life in the communities it serves. Each restaurant stays engaged in its
neighborhood through participation in community events, donations, sponsorships
and fundraisers to help local organizations grow and flourish and takes care of
their own team members through the Flynn Restaurant Group Family Fund.
