Chili's Helps with Fight Against Pediatric Cancer

We were just informed of another local connection to National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month: the Chili’s at 2 E Ontario St. is participating in the restaurant chain’s fifth annual Create-A-Pepper campaign, running now through the end of September. Chili’s has pledged to raise $50 million over a 10-year period for St. Jude’s Children Research Hospital. The campaign will culminate with an all-day event on Monday, September 29, when Chili’s will donate 100% of the profits from the day’s restaurant sales to St. Jude’s. Last year’s Create-A-Pepper campaign raised more than $5.2 million for the hospital.

it's not just the chili's downtown- every Chili's restaurant participates in the Create A Pepper campaign! So stop by any of the great Chili's in the chicagoland area and help raise money for pediatric cancer research :)
