Fans of Culver’s frozen custard headed to their nearest restaurant en masse last month to take advantage of a great deal on the creamy treat. This year, the daylong fundraiser Scoops of Thanks was held on Sept. 24, across 761 Culver’s restaurants. Culver’s guests were able to order a scoop of Fresh Frozen Custard for $1, with the proceeds donated to an FFA chapter or other local agricultural organization in each restaurant’s area.
“This year’s donation total exceeded the record of $112,000 held by 2018’s event, making 2020 the most successful Scoops of Thanks Day yet,” said Company Spokesperson Marcie Waters. “Culver’s is especially proud to have raised so much money during a time when it’s challenging for many FFA chapters to host fundraisers of their own.”
Scoops of Thanks Day is part of the Culver’s ‘Thank You Farmers’ program, an initiative that recognizes all farmers for their hard work and dedication in growing and producing the wholesome food that feeds our nation. To date, the program has raised over a million dollars in support of the National FFA Organization and Foundation, local FFA chapters and a variety of local agricultural organizations.
