WARREN COUNTY, OH -- McDonald's owner operators throughout Ohio will be raising funds for local high school athletic programs on September 26. During the High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day, 261 schools across Ohio, including 14 of the 17 public high schools that service Warren County residents: Bellbrook, Blanchester, Franklin, Goshen, Kings, Lebanon, Loveland, Marshall, Mason, Middletown, Monroe, Princeton, Waynesville and Xenia High Schools, will earn 10 percent of all sales purchased through the McDonald’s app.

This year marks the second time celebrating High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day. McDonald’s owner/operators in Ohio came up with the fundraiser as a way to support high school athletics in the communities they serve. Each locally owned McDonald’s restaurant has chosen a high school in their community to donate 10 percent of all sales on September 26. Each identified high school will receive a minimum of $250.

“We are proud to have these connections in the communities that we serve,” said local McDonald’s Owner/Operator Katie Blankenship. “This is the second year of the digital fundraiser, where all Ohio area owner operators have come together to show our support for local high school athletics. Our hope is that the local communities will come out to support their high schools and help us make the High School Sports Digital Fundraiser Day a success throughout the state.”

The McDonald’s app is available for download in the Apple App Store and the Android Google Play Store. With the McDonald’s app, customers get access to exclusive deals, they can order ahead and pass the line with Mobile Order & Pay, plus they can join MyMcDonald’s Rewards to earn points on every order to redeem for free MacDonald's.

As always, customers can customize their orders to match their personal taste preferences, including asking for no onions or pickles, or holding the sauce on their favorite burger.
