Framingham's Ninety Nine Holds Fundraiser For Folding Flag Foundation

The restaurant chain is raising money to benefit the education of the spouses and children of those who died in military service.

FRAMINGHAM, MA - Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub announced the launch of their first annual fundraiser for The Folded Flag Foundation beginning Monday, June 6 through Monday, July 4 at all 101 Ninety Nine locations across New England and upstate New York, including Framingham's 659 Worcester Rd. location.

The Folded Flag Foundation is a nation-wide organization that provides educational scholarships and supporting grants to spouses and children of the U.S. military personnel who have died as a result of hostile action or in an accident related to U.S. combat operations since September 11, 2001. As a result of corporate sponsorships like that provided by the Ninety Nine, 100% of every dollar donated to the Folded Flag Foundation goes to Gold Star families with no administrative costs.

“We are excited to launch our first annual fundraiser for The Folded Flag Foundation at our Ninety Nine locations this year. We are confident that our guests with the effort of our team members will show tremendous generosity as we raise funds for spouses and children of our nation’s fallen heroes, and to support them as they deserve,” said Ninety Nine CEO Craig W. Barber.
