Guests and Team Members Rally Together to Support Military and First Responder Families
SPRINGFIELD, MO | September 2026 – Incredible Food & Fun is proud to announce that its 2026 campaign benefiting Folds of Honor raised an incredible $49,350 to support educational scholarships for the families of fallen or disabled U.S. military service members and first responders.
The 2026 total more than doubled the $22,982.52 raised in 2025, marking another record year for the partnership and demonstrating what can happen when Incredible Food & Fun team members, guests and communities come together around a shared purpose.
An Incredible Year of Giving
Throughout this year’s campaign, guests at participating Incredible Food & Fun locations were invited to join the company in supporting Folds of Honor.
What began as a partnership built around shared values has quickly become one of the most meaningful community initiatives for Incredible Food & Fun.
“Our teams absolutely embraced this campaign, and our guests did too,” said Brad Edwards, Vice President of Operations for Incredible Food & Fun. “To see what we accomplished together this year is incredible. Our team members made this personal, talked to guests about the mission and helped turn thousands of individual moments into something that will have a real impact on families.”
The campaign included Incredible Food & Fun locations in Memphis, Tennessee; Warr Acres, Oklahoma; San Antonio, Texas; Springfield, Missouri; and Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Our Teams Made the Difference
Behind the final number were team members across the company who championed the campaign every day.
Several team members stood out as the leading fundraisers at their locations, including Tatyana Williams in Memphis, Krista Davis in Warr Acres, William Villella in San Antonio, Ellyon Murray in Springfield and Emily Grooms in Tulsa.
Folds of Honor is also recognizing the company’s top performers with surprise gifts being shipped directly to the winners.
While those individual accomplishments are worth celebrating, the $49,350 total represents the combined work of team members throughout all five participating markets and the generosity of thousands of Incredible Food & Fun guests.
A Partnership That Continues to Grow
Incredible Food & Fun first partnered with Folds of Honor after members of the Tulsa leadership team introduced the organization and its mission to company leadership.
The partnership quickly became something bigger.
In 2025, Incredible Food & Fun set an initial goal of $10,000 and ultimately raised more than $22,000. One year later, the company has more than doubled that result.
“For us, giving back has always been about more than writing a check,” said Rick Barsness, Founder of Incredible Food & Fun. “It is about bringing our guests and our teams together around something that matters. The families supported by Folds of Honor have sacrificed so much for all of us. We are incredibly proud that our Incredible family has continued to step up and support them.”
Check Presentation Celebration Coming Soon
Incredible Food & Fun will officially present its $49,350 donation to Folds of Honor during a special check presentation in Tulsa.
Additional details, including the presentation date, participating leaders and event information, will be announced soon.
The presentation will bring together representatives from Incredible Food & Fun and Folds of Honor to celebrate the teams, guests and communities responsible for this year’s record-setting campaign.
More Than a Campaign
For Incredible Food & Fun, the partnership represents the company’s continued commitment to supporting families both inside and outside its entertainment centers.
As Incredible Food & Fun celebrates its 25th anniversary and begins its next chapter under a new name and brand, community involvement remains an important part of what the company stands for.
To every guest who donated and every team member who asked, encouraged, celebrated and shared the mission: thank you.
Together, you helped turn an Incredible summer into an incredible impact.
