MANCHESTER – The Red Arrow Diner recently donated $5,000 to support the staff at Bonfire Country Bar after a pipe burst, resulting in devastating damage that closed the establishment for the foreseeable future.

After hearing the news, Red Arrow immediately organized a fundraiser to be held just five days later, pledging to donate a portion of sales directly to the Bonfire staff. All four Red Arrow locations came together to provide this support to their hospitality brothers and sisters, recognizing their extreme need leading up to the holidays.

“I am so proud of our Red Arrow Diner community for coming together to help support Bonfire,” said Red Arrow owner Carol Lawrence. “This is the New Hampshire hospitality community I am honored to be part of. We look out for each other, show up when it matters, and never forget that behind every business are real people, families and stories.”

Red Arrow is grateful to customers and staff who showed up and helped raise funds to provide some relief to the Bonfire staff and their families as they navigate these unexpected circumstances.
