Queen Creek Over Easy restaurants part of April fundraiser

Local breakfast restaurant chain Over Easy, with two locations in Queen Creek, is holding its sixth annual “Dollars for a Dozen” fundraiser this this month to benefit Phoenix Children’s Hospital and help families in need across the community.

Throughout April, when dining at any of the 19 Over Easy locations in Arizona guests will have the opportunity to donate $1 or more to Phoenix Children’s Hospital.

Over Easy will then match every donation dollar for dollar. In addition, every dollar raised will contribute to a dozen eggs delivered to the United Food Bank by Hickman’s Family Farms and Sysco.

“Food insecurity in Arizona continues to rise as the cost of food and other essentials climbs,” Jason Reed, CEO of United Food Bank, stated in a press release. “We are thrilled to once again be the beneficiary of Over Easy’s Dollars for a Dozen fundraiser. Eggs remain a vital source of nutrition for the families we serve, and this year’s increased demand highlights just how critical sustained community support is.”  

Since 2020, the annual fundraiser has raised $85,758. The last two years have also raised funds for Phoenix Children’s Hospital.

“We’re thankful to Over Easy and their guests for standing alongside Phoenix Children’s and the families we serve,” stated, Tim Harrison, the vice president of corporate partnerships, special events and grant philanthropy at Phoenix Children’s, stated. “This fundraiser is a powerful example of how local businesses can make a lasting difference by investing in the health and well-being of Arizona’s children and communities.”

Queen Creek’s Over Easy locations are at 21152 E. Rittenhouse Road, Suite 102, and 37584 N. Gantzel Road, Suite 107.

“We’re grateful for the opportunity to bring our community together for a cause that truly matters,” stated Ryan Field, co-owner of Over Easy. “Both Phoenix Children’s and the United Food Bank make an incredible impact on Arizona families, and we’re proud to help support their missions.”
