Philly Pretzel Factory's Twisting for a Cure Featured in the Virginia Gazette

Philly Pretzel Factory was recently featured in an article in the Virginia Gazette entitled, “Pretzels Raise Awareness, Money for Breast Cancer Research." October is not only national pretzel month, but it is also breast cancer awareness month, so all of the Philly Pretzel Factory locations throughout the franchising system have teamed up with the Susan G. Komen Foundation to raise money for a great cause. Last year during their breast cancer awareness month campaign, Philly Pretzel Factory's more than 100 stores raised over $11,000. The goal is to be able to donate at least $20,000 to the Susan G. Komen Foundation this year. This is a great way to awareness for the philanthropic initiative in October and will let consumers know that they can buy pretzel ribbons and some of the proceeds will be donated back to the Foundation. Below is a portion of the article and the article can be read in its entirety by clicking here.

Pretzels raise awareness, money for breast cancer research

During October, Philly Pretzel Factory on Monticello Avenue will sell pretzels shaped as ribbons to raise awareness about breast cancer.

Half of the proceeds from the pretzel ribbons will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation to help fund breast cancer research. Once a customer buys a signature pretzel ribbon, that customer will receive a paper pink ribbon which they will sign and place on Philly Pretzel Factory’s “Wall of Fame.”
