DQ's PTO Nights Are Back
Posted:  August 20, 2013

Each year our DQ Grill & Chill Restaurants partner with their local Elementary School PTO's and host a fundraising event one Tuesday night a month throughout the school year.  

The night of the event from 5pm to 8pm 10% of our total sales is donated to that elementary school's PTO. On top of the donation the top participating class room is treated to an ice cream party later that week. 

Each school's PTO has there on ways of encouraging student participation. We have had school mascots visit the restaurant on the night of the event, teachers working in the restaurant making ice cream, and a school teacher that agreed to spend the night on top of the school if they hit their sales goal just to name a few. 

This is just one ways that we at Arrington Enterprises strive to be a part of the communities that we serve.
