Bojangles raised $548,000 for Fold of Honor, a not-for-profit organization that provides educational scholarships to families of fallen or disabled service members and first responders. Bojangles raised the money through its Camo Big Box campaign, giving customers the chance to purchase limited edition boxes or round up their tickets, according to a press release.

The news was announced at the Carolina Panthers' game Oct. 23 with a check presented to Folds of Honor. The amount raised equates to 109 educational scholarships of $5,000 each.

"It was incredibly special to be able to present this life-changing check to our friends at Folds of Honor on a football field with so much meaning to our brand," Dave Whitaker, Bojangles' chief operating officer, said in the press release. "Many of the customers who helped us reach this milestone dollar amount were sitting in those seats yesterday, and it's because of them and others across our footprint that Bojangles is able to make a difference with partners like Folds of Honor."

"Bojangles and its customers have made a selfless commitment to help educate the families of military service members and first responders," Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, founder and CEO of Folds of Honor, said in the press release. "We are grateful to the entire Bojangles family for again assisting the individuals that we serve."
