5 local Quaker Steak and Lube locations have pledged to donate 10% of all the proceeds from food purchases made on Monday, February 1st to the American Red Cross Northeast Ohio Region.

The restaurant chain practices “giving back to local organizations” like the Red Cross on the first Monday of every month.

“The American Red Cross is grateful to have corporate sponsors like Quaker Steak to help us provide people with assistance when they suffer a disaster like a home fire,” said Mike Parks, CEO of the Northeast Ohio Region.  “And the food is delicious.  What better way is there to give back than by eating a tasty meal at Quaker Steak and Lube?”

Restaurants in Lakewood, Valley View, Vermilion, Sheffield Village and Medina took part in the Make a Difference Monday promotion.

If you missed the chance to contribute to the Red Cross at Quaker Steak, you can donate $10 by texting RED CROSS to 90999.  Or log onto redcross.org to donate, and for information on volunteer opportunities.
