Burgers to Beat MS – Aug. 24
VANCOUVER, BC – A&W Food Services of Canada Inc. celebrates Burgers to Beat MS day on Thursday, August 24th to help Canadians living with multiple sclerosis (MS).
This year, A&W has increased their donation to the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada, now generously donating $2 from every Teen Burger® sold across the country on this day.
Since 2009, A&W’s dedicated operators, enthusiastic staff, and loyal guests have raised more than $9 million to support world-class MS research, and programs and services that aim to improve quality of life for Canadians living with the disease. Burgers to Beat MS is the single largest annual corporate fundraiser for the MS Society of Canada.
On August 24th, the nearly 900 A&W restaurants across the country will host Burgers to Beat MS events – many featuring the Great A&W Root Bear®, A&W Root Beer® floats, music, games and other fun activities. Anyone can get involved and join the #BurgersToBeatMS conversation on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Also, a special Burgers to Beat MS Snapchat filter will be available to Canadians on the day.
