Andy’s Charitable Foundation: Investing in Our Communities

The Andy’s Charitable Foundation was born from a long-standing dedication to community involvement. Andy’s has been privileged to serve communities across North Carolina, and the foundation was established to channel the charitable giving of Andy’s stores back into those communities and beyond.

In 2000, Andy’s started a golf tournament in support of selected charities. After several successful years, Kenny Moore, CEO and President of Andy’s, founded a foundation to reach a broader range of charities within Andy’s operating area. The foundation awarded its first grants in November 2006 and has continued to give annually ever since.

Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries is proud to carry on support for this worthy organization, just as Andy’s Burgers Shakes & Fries did before. The Andy’s Charitable Foundation looks forward to making a positive difference in our communities, and we welcome you to join us.
