October 18, 2024, Press Release from McDonald's: OHIO – (October 18, 2024) – McDonald's fans across Ohio have rallied in support of local high school athletic programs, raising an impressive $112,808.94 during High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day. This initiative allowed McDonald's Owner/Operators to contribute 10 percent of all digital sales made through the McDonald's app to designated high schools, benefiting 266 athletic programs statewide.
Each locally owned McDonald’s restaurant selected a high school in their community to donate 10 percent of all digital sales on September 26. Each identified high school received a minimum of $250.
This was the second year McDonald’s Restaurants hosted the High School Sports Digital Fundraiser. McDonald’s Owner/Operators in Ohio were the first to launch this type of fundraiser last year as a way to support high school athletics in the communities they serve.
“We are proud to have these connections in the communities that we serve,” said McDonald’s Owner/Operator Katie Blankenship. “This is the second year of the digital fundraiser, where all Ohio area owner operators came together to show our support for local high school athletics. We are thankful that the local communities came out to support their high schools and help us make the High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day a success throughout the state.”
