TAMPA, FLA.--Management, staff and customers of 23 Tampa Bay area Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar restaurants gave $6,291 to Easter Seals Florida Inc. through multiple fund-raising ventures spanning a period of several months.

The fund-raisers marked the third year that Applebee's operator Casual Restaurant Concepts Inc. has given support to the Easter Seals charity as a corporate sponsor.

The contributions were raised through grand-opening parties for two new restaurants as well as through a cake sale by the franchisee's corporate-office staff and through the sale of paper flowers in the restaurants.
