NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--O’Charley’s Restaurant + Bar today announced the launch of its ‘Give $5 Get $5’ campaign to raise money for The Folded Flag Foundation. September 27 through Veterans Day (November 11, 2021), guests can take $5 off their next bill by donating $5 to Folded Flag. 100% of all contributions received by Folded Flag, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, go directly toward educational scholarships and grants for the families of fallen soldiers.

“O’Charley’s has supported Folded Flag for years and it has become an essential element of what we do as a company,” said O’Charley’s CEO Craig Barber. “Over this time, we’ve heard many heartwarming stories from the Gold Star families whose lives have been positively impacted by the Foundation’s work. Our ‘Give $5 Get $5’ campaign is a wonderful opportunity to show respect for the brave men and women who have fought for our country and made the ultimate sacrifice. I wholeheartedly support the mission of Folded Flag and our team at O’Charley’s is blessed to march together with the Foundation and those who benefit from the monies raised.”

September 27 through November 11, guests dining at any O’Charley’s location will have the opportunity to donate $5 to Folded Flag and receive $5 off their next meal in the form of a voucher. If a guest is ordering online and would like to donate, $5 will be deducted from their order at the time of purchase.

“O’Charley’s has been a critical partner and supporter in raising money for our Gold Star families,” said Folded Flag Foundation President Kim Frank. “And beyond knowing how involved O’Charley’s team members are, it is heartwarming to see how many different guests that dine with O’Charley’s are willing to support our mission. It makes a huge difference in the assistance we are able to provide our Gold Star families. Since our inception, we have provided nearly $11 million and more than 1,700 scholarships to our Gold Star families. A sincere thank you goes to each and every person who joins O’Charley’s in this effort.”

Supporting The Folded Flag Foundation is the cornerstone of O’Charley’s larger Hometown Heroes initiative, which shows appreciation for all of the heroes in our communities. O’Charley’s provides support, in-kind donations, free meals and more to military heroes, frontline workers, first responders and other heroes.
