The Old Spaghetti Factory (OSF) in Redlands is hosting the 4th annual Tip-a-Firefighter benefiting Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH) on Tuesday, April 28 during lunch and dinner. “Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital is thrilled The Old Spaghetti Factory in Redlands is once again hosting this fundraiser,” said Jillian Payne, executive director, LLUCH Foundation. “Events like this are 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.” Local firefighters from Loma Linda, Redlands and Colton Fire Departments, as well as San Bernardino County Fire Department will be on hand serving lunch and dinner at OSF. All tips collected by the firefighters will be donated to LLUCH. The Redlands OSF has successfully hosted the annual event for the last three years, raising nearly $17,000. Redlands OSF marketing coordinator and server, Angela Burian, and her team look forward to Tip-a-Firefighter every year. “Tip-a-Firefighter is an enjoyable event for the staff as well as the guests,” she exclaimed. “It gives us a chance to have a fun, light-hearted day as the firefighters help us get drinks and take orders.” Burian added that it is fun to see the reactions guests have when they are greeted by a firefighter, especially the kids who “go crazy for it, and the firefighters have a lot of fun.” “We love that we can help Loma Linda University Children's Hospital in such a fun way!” Funds from Tip-A-Firefighter will go toward Vision 2020 and the new Children’s Hospital tower, which is expected to break ground in Spring 2016. The Old Spaghetti Factory is located at 1635 Industrial Park Avenue, Redlands. Firefighters will be serving lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and dinner from 5 to 9 p.m.
