CARPINTERIA, Calif. — Carl's Jr. announced that customers supporting an in-store restaurant fundraising program in May 2006 donated more than $300,000 for breast cancer awareness and support.
A portion of the funds were presented during its annual franchise conference event in Chicago and accepted by Janelle Hail, founder of the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
According to a news release, this is the second year Carl's Jr. franchised restaurants have conducted the in-store donation program, and the first that company-operated restaurants supported the cause.
