TAYLORS, SC – In 2011, FATZ® Franklin has partnered with numerous organizations through its Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser program, raising $6,500 and counting to benefit the local community. Ranked best overall restaurant two years in a row in Macon County, Operating Partner Chris Watts and FATZ® employees lend helping hands and great food to bring neighbors together and enrich the community.
Chris Watts was recognized this
past March for his contributions to the community by helping to
raise funds for the Angel Medical Center Breast Heath Center and
Cardiac Rehab Gap services. By donating time and help this gave AMC
the ability to buy stateof- the-art equipment to ensure the medical
center can provide the needed services to those in the community.
Partnering up again with Angel Medical Center and Macon County
Public Health Department, FATZ® has become a recent corporate
sponsor for the Ladies Night Out Program, a monthly event that
focuses on health and wellness education for women.

giving back. These restaurants extend across five different states
with 48 locations helping benefit organizations ranging from local
schools to The United Way.
