Our next restaurant fundraiser will take place at a family favorite location, Chick-fil-A, on Wednesday, March 15 from 4pm to 7pm.
The Friends will receive 20 percent of all orders placed via the Chick-fil-A mobile app, Chick-fil-A One, during this period.
This will work differently than other Friends restaurant fundraisers, in that you don’t need to present a flyer when you order. Here is how to participate:
The Chick-fil-A One app gives you points for every order you make, so frequent customers are likely already using the app to purchase. Thank you for supporting Scottsdale Public Library with this fundraiser.
Friends of the Scottsdale Public Library will be partnering with BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse in Desert Ridge (21001 North Tatum Blvd) to receive 20 percent of food sales on February 1.
From 5pm to 10pm, you have three options to participate in this BJ’s fundraiser:
BJ’s has something for all the food lovers in your family, including burgers and steaks, pizza and pasta, and soups and salads.
While known for its large selection of beers, the Friends will only receive a portion of proceeds from food and non-alcoholic beverages.
The Friends has raised over $1,700 through restaurant fundraisers in 2021 and 2022, and this is a delicious way to continue supporting the library. Thank you for your support, and we hope to see you on February 1.
During the month of November, you can participate in our Krispy Kreme fundraiser. Enjoy delicious donuts while benefiting the Friends of the Scottsdale Public Library through our Digital Dozens campaign.
Visit https://tinyurl.com/spldonuts to purchase a dozen original glazed donuts between now and November 30 for $12. Once you order, you will receive a non-expiring voucher to pick-up your freshly cooked dozen at any Krispy Kreme location (including the store at 7055 E Shea Blvd in Scottsdale near Mustang Library).
The Friends will receive $4.50 of your purchase (over 33 percent). We have set a goal of 100 dozens sold in hopes of raising $450 toward Scottsdale Public Library programs. There is no limit on how many dozens you order.
Share this fundraiser with friends and family and help us meet our goal. You’ll enjoy some delicious (and famous) donuts while benefiting a great cause.
