“We are deeply saddened to see the devastation
caused by Hurricane Harvey,” said Greg Trojan, President and CEO of

Texas, this storm has impacted many of our team members, guests,
friends, family, and our hearts go out to those who have lost so
much. It is our honor to engage our restaurants across the country
to raise much-needed money and help with the recovery.”

program called Give a Slice, which is an entirely employee-funded
program designed to assist team members in a time of tragedy or
crisis,” explained Trojan. “In true BJ’s fashion, we are rallying
in support of our team members in need and will ensure they receive
