GIVING BACK
As part of the company’s ongoing efforts to give back to the community, Firebirds donates year-round $1.25 per glass of house-made lemonade ordered in the restaurant to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) to help fund childhood cancer research. Additionally, each June, the restaurant participates in the ALSF’s fundraiser, Lemonade Days, in which it donates to the cause all proceeds from the sale of house-made lemonade at a stand near the restaurants’ front door. Nationwide, Firebirds has already raised more than $2 million for ALSF, one cup of lemonade at a time.
Firebirds will honor active military and veterans by treating them to a free lunch or dinner entrée on Veterans Day Wednesday, Nov. 11th. Guests will need a reservation valid form of military ID or they can wear their uniform to any Firebirds location. If dining with family or friends, the complimentary entrée will be whichever entrée is of lesser value.
