Community
Rush’s has a long history of supporting the neighborhoods that make each of our restaurants thrive. Call us old-fashioned, but we believe in the people that work and eat at Rush’s.
That means doing our share in our communities: Columbia, West Columbia, Lexington, and Camden.
If you have an interest in partnering with Rush’s for the purpose of enriching education and community benevolence, please fill out the form below. Rush’s will only respond to requests that use the contact form found at this web address.
With due consideration of budgetary limitations, we continually seek ways we can give back to the community we serve.
Rush’s accepts requests for gift card donations and sponsorships. We do not participate in food donations or food sampling. Due to the high volume of requests, we cannot respond to and/or support every request.
