Who knew that Applebee's put on flapjack fundraisers for the community? In a fundraising world where pancakes rule, this was news to me.
The Optimist Club of Rocky Mount, North Carolina took Applebee's up on their offer this past weekend. Working with the Apple Gold Group, a franchisee of Applebee's, the community was offered a shortstack of pancakes, sausage, juice, milk and coffee for $6.00.
Think of it: your Optimist Club can offer a pancake breakfast without buying supplies, stirring up batter, and cleaning up afterwards. Plus it gives a local restaurant the opportunity to share a little community service and get some advertising.
I hope the Applebee's in my neighborhood participates; I'm recommending this opportunity to a local Optimist Club today.
