Fazoli's serving pink lemon ice in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month

September 24, 2013

Fazoli's is hosting its second annual breast cancer awareness fundraiser on Sept. 30 and has also created a five-entrée, limited-time offer dubbed the Fab Five.

During October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, each sale of Pink Lemon Ice for $1.99 will generate a donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The organization's mission is to save lives by increasing awareness of breast cancer through education and by providing mammograms for those in need. Fazoli's hopes to raise more than $15,000 for the foundation, said Cathy Hull, Fazoli's chief marketing officer.

"Breast cancer awareness is an important cause to Fazoli's guests, the majority of whom are women," she said. "Since the disease affects the entire family — not just a person — it is fitting that our family-oriented restaurants help in its prevention."

Pink Lemon Ice is available at participating Fazoli's locations until Nov. 3, or while supplies last.
