A Texas Roadhouse fundraiser night is an easy way for a school, team, church or nonprofit to raise money: supporters eat dinner, and the restaurant gives part of the sales back to your group.
How a Texas Roadhouse Fundraiser Works
- Your group picks a date with your local restaurant.
- The restaurant gives you a flyer to share with supporters.
- Supporters show the flyer (printed or on their phone) when they order.
- The restaurant donates a share of those sales, usually 10% of event sales, to your group.
Who Can Hold a Fundraiser?
Schools, PTAs, sports teams, scout troops, churches, charities and other nonprofit groups can apply. Community clubs without nonprofit status may still qualify but usually need to provide tax ID details.
How to Book One
- Contact the managing partner or the local marketing representative of your nearest Texas Roadhouse.
- Book 4 to 6 weeks ahead so there is time to promote it.
- Events are often held on weeknights (for example Monday to Wednesday evenings) or weekend lunchtimes, each restaurant sets its own options.

Tips to Raise More
- Share the flyer on social media, in school newsletters and group chats the week before and the day of the event.
- Remind people to show the flyer, orders without it may not count.
- Ask whether to-go orders and gift card sales count toward your total.
- Pick a quieter night so the restaurant can welcome a crowd.
Getting Paid
After the event, the restaurant tells your group how much was raised and arranges the donation, usually within a few days. Rules differ a little by location, so confirm the percentage and details when you book.
