Nothing says goodness quite like scratch-made biscuits, friendly football rivalries and giving back to those in need. In that spirit, Hardee's has announced it’s teaming up with Atlanta-based nonprofit Caring For Others to serve those just beginning to recover from recent hurricanes. On November 16, our teams will come together for a tailgate-style fundraiser for hurricane relief at Hardee’s just outside of Athens, Ga. alongside multi-platinum entertainer Thomas Rhett who is known for his philanthropic efforts across the southeast, and for being a long-time University of Georgia football fan. For those local to the event, we encourage you to come out and share in some food, fun and community as we work to support those who need us most in this moment.

Who doesn’t love a down-home brunch and Made-from-Scratch Biscuits? This year, Hardee’s was a proud sponsor of the Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival, hosted right here in our hometown of Franklin, TN. Alongside can’t-miss performances, Hardee’s was on site with free biscuits for new and existing My Rewards loyalty program members all weekend and samples of cold brew and Cinnamon ‘N’ Raisin Biscuits to Sunday crowds. Hardee’s also hosted a VIP sweepstakes, giving one lucky winner the opportunity for an “Eat & Greet” with Country Star Lukas Nelson. Thanks to our brand and culinary teams for representing us with goodness and pride and to the Pilgrimage Team for an amazing event.

This season, nothing is spookier than getting ghosted. Whether your potential employer or supposed best friend has cut off contact, or you’re feeling the guilt of ghosting someone yourself, we have just the solution to lift your spirits with Carl’s Jr.’s new limited-time burger – The Ghost. While a burger with face-melting ghost pepper cheese and soul-scorching sauce is enough to satisfy heat-seeking cravings, we’re giving our guests some extras, too. Brand fans have the chance to get in on the fun by bringing their bold, audacious selves front and center to share their ghosting stories to social media for a chance to win free food and swag. Learn more about The Ghost and the #GhostMode campaign here: https://lnkd.in/g4UPwr5R?

On September 3, 1960, Wilber Hardee opened the first Hardee’s restaurant in Greenville, North Carolina. What followed was more than 60 years of growth, teamwork and commitment to communities around the globe. In celebration of that amazing legacy, Hardee's teams held a two-part Founders Day event on Tuesday, with corporate teams serving alongside restaurant teams in the morning and everyone joining in for a 64th Founders Day celebration in the afternoon. Thanks to everyone involved for a great event, and to our teams and partners for continuing to build on the legacy of our great founder, Wilber Hardee.
