Legacy of Literacy

When Bojangles opened the Bojangles Foundation Fund, an FFTC Corporate Donor Advised Fund, they wanted to use it to support its two main charitable pillars — military support and literacy. In celebration of the local restaurant chain’s 45th anniversary, they allocated $45,000 to bolster literacy efforts, inviting communities to apply for grants to support their literacy programs. They also provided more than $540,000 to Folds of Honor for scholarships to students from military families.
