The Old Spaghetti Factory (OSF) in Redlands and Rancho Mirade hosted Tip-A-Firefighter in April, raising over $9,000 for Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH). “Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital is very thankful for The Old Spaghetti Factory in Rancho Mirage and Redlands for hosting this fundraiser,” said Jillian Payne, executive director of the LLUCH Foundation. “This event was a great way for the community to come together for some great food and fun while raising much needed funds for the children in our care.” OSF in Rancho Mirage hosted the event for the first time on April 16. Local firefighters and fire cadets from the desert area served restaurant patrons during lunch and dinner. “The Old Spaghetti Factory is honored to have had the opportunity to be a part of the Tip-A-Firefighter fundraiser,” said restaurant general manager of the Rancho Mirage location, Juana Orona. “It was an important community event for a wonderful cause.” The Redlands location hosted the event for the third year in a row on April 22. Local firefighters from Loma Linda Fire Department, Redlands Fire Department, Colton Fire Department, and San Bernardino County Fire Department were on hand serving lunch and dinner. "We were excited to partner once again with local firefighters to contribute to a great cause,” said Lily Wong, general manager, The Old Spaghetti Factory Redlands. “We look forward to hosting it for years to come." All tips collected by the firefighters and fire cadets at both locations were donated to LLUCH.
