Meet Damon DunnWhen local businesses succeed, communities thrive. That is why franchises are so vital to uplifting our students, our neighbors, and our families. Franchises provide essential jobs, income, and benefits. But even more important—they foster a true sense of local community. Franchise owners are integral to that community through their philanthropic efforts — sponsoring the local little league team, raising money for student programs, and delivering hot meals for those in need. Many of these local businesses have been serving their communities for decades. Owners, employees, and customers rely on each other, building each other up and creating long-term, quality relationships that define what community really means today. Together, we are Open for Opportunity.
