Applebee's restaurants in Oklahoma are launching their annual Susan G. Komen for the Cure fundraiser in conjunction with National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The fundraiser will run from September 7th until October 18th in all of the Apple Gold Group restaurants throughout Oklahoma and Arkansas.

“We are excited to come together with our guests to support such a personal cause,” said Michael Olander, President and CEO of Apple Gold Group. “Fundraisers like this for Susan G. Komen are just another way Applebee’s can support local non-profit organizations in their worthy endeavors.”

The Apple Gold Group is the franchisee for restaurants in Oklahoma, North Carolina and Arkansas. The fundraiser will run from September 7th until October 18th in all of the Apple Gold Group restaurants throughout Oklahoma and Arkansas.
