“Crabfries for Heroes has historically demonstrated how passionate and generous our customer base is,” said Chickie’s & Pete’s Chairman and CEO Pete Ciarrochi. “Traditions like these provide fantastic opportunities to gather the Chickie’s community to raise money and awareness for a great cause. We hope to see everyone coming out on the 13th to support our fundraising goals, enjoy the iconic taste of Crabfries®, and even try some new and exciting Crabfries® varieties as well!”

Crabfries® for Heroes has raised more than $110,000 to date for the Fraternal Order of Police Survivors Fund. The FOP Survivor Fund, who has been the beneficiary of this event for nearly a decade, works to provide financial assistance and support to families of Philadelphia police officers injured or killed in the line of duty.

Crabfries® for Heroes started as a simple idea to say “Thank you” to police officers for their service and dedication to their communities. After seeing the need firsthand, Pete Ciarrocchi and his team decided to make a major commitment to The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) Survivors Fund.
