Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Local Law Enforcement Officers Raise Funds to Benefit Special Olympics Florida

Local law enforcement officers will trade in their handcuffs and badges for aprons and gourmet burgers at Red Robin^® restaurants in Florida as part of the national Tip-A-Cop event benefitting Special Olympics. Law enforcement in 39 states will collect tips and help serve Red Robin restaurant guests from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 4 to 8 p.m. The goal is to raise $1 million dollars in one day!

So come on out to your local Red Robin, grab a great burger, “Tip A Cop” and support Special Olympics!

Supporting local and national causes, like Special Olympics, that promote the health and welfare of families and citizens in local communities is an important part of the Red Robin culture. Red Robin has been supporting Special Olympics Programs across the country for the past seven years and has helped raise more than $1.5 million for Special Olympics.

Tip-A-Cop^® is part of the annual Law Enforcement Torch Run^® (LETR) campaign. LETR, which includes a statewide series of relay runs and special events like Tip-A-Cop^®, is made possible by more than 5,000 Florida law enforcement officers who help raise money and public awareness for Special Olympics Florida. Globally, the LETR is the largest grassroots fundraiser and public awareness vehicle for Special Olympics.
