Since its start in 1993, the V Foundation has awarded over $200 million in cancer research grants nationwide.
“The V Foundation for Cancer Research ® is a great organization, and we are so happy to be a part of the fundraising efforts for an organization that helps advance the lives of millions affected by cancer,” Stated founder Shawn Lalehzarian.
The Red Chickz’s various menu items have caught the eyes of thousands on social media, leading it to become one of the most popular Tik Tok accounts in the restaurant industry with over 838,000 followers. Whether it’s cutting into their crispy chicken tenders or artfully drizzling Comeback Sauce onto sandwiches, viewers can’t get enough. Their Instagram isn’t far behind, with over 92,000 followers liking and commenting on their posts of the chicken up close to show off every delicious detail.
The Red Chickz makes their Nashville hot chicken to order in six different spice levels and forms such as sandwiches, tenders, wings, and tacos. Shrimp is also featured on the menu and can be tossed in the same spice mixtures. To accompany the mains, The Red Chickz also has some classic Southern staple sides like potato wedges and coleslaw, and makes their own “Comeback Sauce” to dunk in.
“We are ecstatic to be sponsoring such a prestigious event,” said Lalehzarian. “We are honored to treat all of the generous donors attending and introduce them to our fresh and delicious hot chicken at the same time.”
The Red Chickz brings Nashville to Los Angeles with their own version of the city’s famous food.
