What are Community Give-Back Days?
At Heeter’s Drive-In, we believe being a local restaurant means supporting the community that supports us. Our Community Give Back Days are designated days when a portion of sales is donated to a local nonprofit or organization making a meaningful difference in Danville and the surrounding communities.
When you dine with us, whether in-house or take-out, you are directly helping neighbors, families, and causes that strengthen our region. It is our way of giving back and investing in the communities we are proud to serve.
Below you will find our 2026 Community Give Back Days, including the organizations we are supporting, event details, and information about the important work they do.
