Local schools across Western Pennsylvania will benefit from a McDonald’s restaurant fundraiser next week.
From open to close on Wednesday, Oct. 9, dubbed Arch Support Digital Fundraiser Day, schools will earn 20% of all sales purchased through the McDonald’s app at their partner restaurant.
Across the tri-state area, 131 schools will each partner with one local McDonald’s restaurant. A minimum of $300 is guaranteed to each school, McDonald’s said in a news release.
Arch Support Digital Fundraiser Day will benefit a “wide range of educational programs,” according to the release. Local schools will determine how to use the funds.
Some examples of who will benefit:
