Here’s the press release from the Asheville Fire Department:
Percentage Day for Local Firefighter
Twenty restaurants will be participating in a “Percentage Day” benefit to raise funds for the Asheville Fallen Firefighters / Shane Mackey Fund. Area restaurants are sponsoring this event on February 16th, 17th and 18th. A percentage of the restaurants profits will be donated to assist Capt.
