On August 6, visit any participating U.S. A&W Restaurant from 2–8 p.m. and get a FREE Small Root Beer Float on us. In return, you’ll have the chance to donate to our partners at DAV (Disabled American Veterans) and receive a collector’s mug for $10. Join us in raising a mug and making a difference.
As part of this year’s celebration, we’re offering a free A&W collector’s mug when you donate $10 or more to DAV (Disabled American Veterans) between June 30 and August 6. Contact your local A&W Restaurant directly to make your donation!
Our commitment to U.S. service members traces back more than a century, starting with a humble Root Beer Stand serving frosty mugs to World War I heroes. A lot has changed since those early days, but much remains the same. On National Root Beer Float Day, we honor our roots by continuing to provide support to those who serve. Through our partnership with DAV—a nonprofit that helps more than a million veterans each year by providing vital services, advocacy, and benefits assistance—we proudly carry forward our salute to service. Can’t make it to a restaurant? You can donate online anytime and help make a difference year-round.
