| Now servingChappy's serves breakfast fundraiser for charity
Labor Day barbecues Being owned and operated by Montgomerians, Chappy's Deli plays an active role in the community.
On Friday, Chappy's is bringing back the Breakfast for Babies fundraiser from 5:30 to 8:30 a.m. Friday at the Perry Hill Road location. During those hours, you can get a hot breakfast that includes eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuit and grits for a contribution of $5 or more. And they'll even bring it to your car so you aren't late for work or school.
What a deal, and what a worthy cause! Last year, the deli served its first Breakfast for Babies and raised more than $8,000 for the March of Dimes.
I've seen the positive impact the March of Dimes has made. The organization is dedicated to preventing birth defects, premature births and infant mortality.

Salon offers free haircuts for donations
On Aug. 26, Romeo & Juliet Salon Spa will sponsor a food drive to keep area families from going hungry. To encourage participation in the food drive, salon and spa owner Julie Katz and her team of hairdressers plan to provide area school-age children (kindergarten through 12th grade) with complimentary back-to-school haircuts in exchange for a donation of four or more items for the Frisco Family Services Center and Little Elm food pantries."The food drive will be a great way to gather food for families in need and a rewarding way for us to thank those who participate," Katz said. "We wanted to do something to pay back the community who has been so wonderful to us."Romeo & Juliet Salon Spa opened its doors in December 2006. The day provides an opportunity for the people of Frisco and Little Elm to participate in a great cause."Most of us may not know that more than half of the people these food banks serve are children," Katz added.
