ButterBurgers and Badges at Culver's of Lake Zurich

Culver's of Lake Zurich had some extra help serving its guests during last month's Special Olympics Illinois (SOILL) fundraiser, which raised nearly $20,000 for the organization.

The first annual ButterBurgers and Badges event took place June 30 and closed out a month of collecting donations for SOILL. More than 40 participating Chicagoland Culver's restaurants offered a special concrete mixer deal with $1 from each dessert sold donated to Special Olympics. Local law enforcement collected tips for their table and drive-thru service, which also benefited the organization. In addition, local Special Olympics athletes were on-hand to meet and greet guests and sign autographs.

The funds raised will help the organization continue its programs that provide year-round sports training and competition for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.
