McDonald’s owner operators throughout Kentucky and Kentuckiana will be raising funds for 107 local high school athletic programs on Thursday, Sept. 26, including: Whitley County High School, Corbin High School, Lynn Camp Middle School/High School, Knox Central High School, North Laurel High School and South Laurel High School.
During the High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day, 10 percent of all sales purchased through the McDonald’s app will be donated to local sports programs.
This year marks the first time Kentucky operators are celebrating High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day. McDonald’s owner/operators in Ohio came up with the fundraiser last year as a way to support high school athletics in the communities they serve.
Each locally owned McDonald’s restaurant has chosen a high school in their community to donate 10 percent of all sales on Sept. 26. Each identified high school will receive a minimum of $250.
“This is the first time owner/operators throughout the state have come together on one day to show our support for athletics in the communities we serve,” said Williamsburg McDonald’s Owner/Operator Jon Faris Jr. “Our hope is that the local communities will come out to support their high schools and help us make the High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day a success throughout the state.”
The McDonald’s app is available for download in the Apple App Store and the Android Google Play Store. With the McDonald’s app, customers get access to exclusive deals, they can order ahead and pass the line with Mobile Order & Pay, plus they can join MyMcDonald’s Rewards to earn points on every order to redeem for free McDonald’s.
As always, customers can customize their orders to match their personal taste preferences, including asking for no onions or pickles, or holding the sauce on their favorite burger.
