The Red Cross has become aware that an email is circulating telling people that they will receive a $50 gift certificate to Applebee's if they forward on an email about Applebee's Dine to Donate night for the Red Cross in Southeastern Wisconsin.

THIS IS A HOAX. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A GIFT CARD.

You will receive the gratitude of the Red Cross and the people we help by printing out the Applebee's Dine to Donateflyer and bringing it to Applebee's on May 21. When you dine-in or order your food carside/to go at any participating Applebee's on this special day, just present the flyer and Applebee's will donate 15% of food sales from the guest check of all flyers redeemed to the American Red Cross.

So enjoy yourself and eat well for a good cause!
