A hotdog restaurant in the FairOaks Mall has extended its online crowdfunding campaign to help fund a move to downtown Columbus.
Special Dogs & More launched its $50,000 online fundraising campaign June 16 to help finance a move to the former Eagles Club at 217 Washington St., located across from the Bartholomew County Courthouse.
The restaurant had initially set a deadline of Thursday to secure all of the needed funding, but the campaign has been extended a month to Sept. 2, said Randy Lapidus, who co-owns the restaurant with his wife, Robin.
The business, which employs individuals with emotional and intellectual disabilities, has been operating at the mall since October.
