Escorted Transportation Service Northwest (ETS/NW), an Arlington Heights-based nonprofit that provides rides for local seniors to their crucial medical and dental appointments, is holding a tasty fundraising "Eat & Earn" event at Francesca's Tavola on November 8th.

Francesca's Tavola will donate 20% of every meal diners enjoy on the day directly to ETS/NW as a way to support the organization. Open 11:30am - 9:00pm, Francesca's Tavola is located at 208 S Arlington Heights Rd., Arl Hts. All diners have to do is mention that they're there to support ETS/NW.

"Events like this are an easy and fun way for people in the community to enjoy a great meal AND support a great cause at the same time," said Lynndah Easterwood Lahey, ETS/NW Executive Director. "Francesca's support of our organization really makes a big impact on our fundraising efforts."

Escorted Transportation Service Northwest (ETS/NW), founded in 2006, has provided more than 13,900 round-trip rides for local seniors to their medical and dental appointments. The program has 70 volunteer drivers and funds are always needed in order to provide insurance for the drivers, as well as for sustaining the program itself.
