The 11th Annual Hardee's Rise & Shine for Heat-Up St. Louis benefit will take place on Friday, Feb. 10 (from 5 a.m. until 11 a.m.) in approximately 60 participating Hardee's restaurants in Missouri and Illinois.

Last year, a record-breaking 500 volunteers served as celebrity greeters and more than $85,000 was raised through the sale of Sausage and Egg Biscuit sandwiches for a special price of $1.00 plus extra tips collected by the volunteers.  The money raised helps local qualified seniors, disabled and low-income people with their winter utility bills.

Everyone is invited to stop by Hardee's on the 10th and enjoy breakfast while helping a good cause.

If you would like to volunteer, pre-order or make a donation log on to http://www.heatupstlouis.org/ .
