For today only, $2 from every Teen Burger sold at A&W will go to MS Canada.
OXFORD - You can enjoy a delicious burger and support MS research at the same time.
It's Burgers to Beat MS Day at A&W locations across Canada. Susan Senecal, the President and CEO of A&W Canada, explains how it works.
"On Thursday August 20th, $2 from every Teen Burger sold will go directly to MS Canada to support their important work including the Knowledge Network, Peer Support, and world class MS research. I think we've done a lot, we have learned a lot, and we have more to learn as things progress."
She says this is the 18th year of the campaign and it's a cause that hits close to home.
"It's called Canada's disease be cause we have one of the highest incidences of MS in the world. It made sense for a Canadian company like A&W to support a cause that is important to so many Canadians."
We have three A&W locations in Oxford County; one in Woodstock (451 Norwich Ave), one in Ingersoll (170 Culloden Road), and one in Tillsonburg (533 Broadway Street).
According to the A&W website, the Teen Burger is a grass-fed beef patty topped with real cheddar cheese, bacon, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickles and Teen sauce. It's served on a toasted sesame seed bun.
You can also donate to the Burgers to Beat MS campaign online here.
