- CHARITY -


This isn't just about delicious food—it's also about giving back.

 

We're proud to support an incredible charity with all profits from the burger and fries: The Sickle Cell Society, dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by sickle cell disorder, a genetic condition affecting red blood cells' ability to carry oxygen, leading to pain episodes and increased risk of organ damage. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and complications, with options like Hydroxyurea and bone marrow transplant for certain cases.
