On Tuesday, September 25th, Runza® Restaurants will conduct the 10th Annual Great Books for Great Kids fundraiser. The funds will benefit the Grand Island Public Library. Last year, over $30,000 was raised to benefit children in communities with Runza® locations and in the last nine years, over $240,000 has been donated.

Runza® Restaurants has been a longtime supporter of reading. “Reading is vital to lifelong success and provides an excellent opportunity for families to spend time together” stated Becky Perrett, Director of Marketing for Runza® National. “Donating funds for books and promoting literacy is an important endeavor for children and the community.”
