Cloverdale, Greencastle sports will benefit from McDonald’s digital sales today only

McDonald’s digital customers in Cloverdale and Greencastle will have the chance to support the athletic programs at their local high schools when they make their purchases through the McDonald’s mobile app.

The Jedele Enterprises McDonald’s restaurants in Cloverdale and Greencastle are among 177 stores across Indiana, southwest Michigan and southeast Illinois taking part in this one-day digital fundraiser.

All day long, 10 percent of all sales made on the McDonald’s mobile app will be given to local high schools. Each locally-owned McDonald’s restaurant has chosen a high school in their community to donate 10 percent of all digital sales on Oct. 2. Each identified high school will receive a minimum of $250.

Here in Putnam County, that means Cloverdale High School will benefit from sales at the Cloverdale store, while Greencastle High School will benefit from the Greencastle store.

This year marks the first time Indiana operators are hosting a 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. 

“This is the first time all Greater Indiana area Owner/Operators have come together on one day to show our support for athletics in the communities we serve,” said McDonald’s owner/operator Jay Okayama. “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.”
