PRAIRIE DU SAC, Wis. — Culver's restaurants in 16 states raised more than $180,000 for local American Red Cross chapters during "Day of Giving" fundraising events on and around March 5. The fundraiser surpassed the systemwide goal of $175,000, and donation canisters are available at select locations throughout March.

More than 365 Culver's restaurants raised the funds through a 10 percent of sales donation and additional guest donations placed in canisters. The money raised at each locally owned and operated restaurant will stay in the community in which it was donated to help the Red Cross pay for local community programs as well as emergency preparedness and disaster relief efforts.

The fundraiser coincided with National Red Cross Month.
