Buffalo Wild Wings® is excited to announce the launch of its annual fundraiser dedicated to strengthening local youth charities across the United States.

Throughout the campaign, Buffalo Wild Wings customers can contribute to the cause by purchasing paper pinups for a minimum donation of $1, prominently displayed throughout the restaurants. As a gesture of appreciation, the company will also provide a bounceback coupon for 6 complimentary boneless wings to individuals who donate a minimum of $5.

The funds raised will revolutionize the lives of countless children and teenagers by granting them the opportunity to engage in team sports at their local Club. These experiences equip them with invaluable life skills that extend beyond the field. Additionally, donations facilitate the training of coaches and the provision of uniforms and equipment to young athletes through Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s ALL STARS program.

In celebrating a remarkable decade-long partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs, Buffalo Wild Wings takes pride in its contributions to date. Over the past 10 years, Buffalo Wild Wings and its generous patrons have jointly raised and donated an astounding $28 million, impacting the lives of more than 1.8 million local Club youth and Club teens.

“We know kids and teens thrive when they have access to activities that keep them active and encourage teamwork,” said Jim Clark, President & CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of America. “By supporting our sports programs and Club staff training through the ALL STARS program, Buffalo Wild’s partnership has enabled young people to build self-confidence and life-enhancing skills that help them succeed on and off the field.”

As part of this collaboration, Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Florida and Buffalo Wild Wings recently hosted a Sports Innovation Day. During this event, Club youth engaged in a variety of non-traditional sports, such as Ultimate Frisbee, Pickleball, Ping Pong, Soccer Golf, and Dodgeball, expanding opportunities for even more children. Over the past decade, ALL STARS has traditionally provided opportunities in Flag Football, Basketball, Soccer, and Volleyball.
