BERGEN COUNTY, N.J. -- Applebee's locations in New Jersey and Long Island recently presented a check for $231,917 to the U.S. Marines Corps in support of its Toys for Tots program.

The money was raised during Applebee’s annual Breakfast with Santa fundraising events in New Jersey and Long Island -- 100 percent of the proceeds went to the cause, "to benefit underprivileged children to brighten the holidays, unify local communities and deliver a message of hope," according to a press release.

In the past 17 years, Applebee’s locations owned and operated by Doherty Enterprises in New Jersey, Long Island, Florida and Georgia have raised more than $3.6 million for the Toys for Tots initiative, spreading holiday cheer to more than 230,000 deserving children.
