## Story

The IFA Franchise Education & Research Foundation has offered its thanks to all the franchisors, franchisees, and supplier partners that participated in the third annual Franchising Gives Back Awards. The awards attracted the most nominations in the history of the program, a testament, it says, “to the incredible impact our industry has made, and continues to make, in local communities across the country.

“Franchising Gives Back is the single most valuable tool we have to show our lawmakers at local, state, and national levels how the franchising community supports those in need by giving back every day. You can help us put the spotlight on franchise businesses that have donated millions of dollars and thousands of volunteer hours to their local communities.”

This year’s winners will be honored at the Franchising Gives Back Celebration & Awards Dinner on Monday, Sept. 11, 2017, from 7-9 p.m. at the JW Marriott in Washington, D.C. – based Franchise Action Network Annual Meeting.

Tickets to the awards dinner are available for $200 and attendees also may sponsor tables (10 seats). Members that submitted nominations for the 2017 Awards may purchase tickets for a discounted price of $100. Proceeds from all ticket sales and table sponsorships help fund cash prizes awarded to winners and supports the Franchising Gives Back program.
