Scholastic Readership Program

Des Moines area McDonald’s and Scholastic Book Fairs teamed up to put books into children’s hands and promote reading. J&D Restaurants McDonald’s in Des Moines and Ankeny hosted school-wide book fairs so every child goes home with a minimum of one book. Together, they are supporting a school’s independent reading plan and helping build student’s home libraries allowing students to continue practicing their reading skills at home.

Community Sponsorships

J&D Restaurants supports many local community organizations through sponsorships and monetary, food or supply donations. From school fundraisers to sports teams we are committed to supporting community events and programs.
