MINNEAPOLIS – Veteran Minnesota Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway will host his sixth annual Celebrity Waiter Night on Monday, Sept. 19 at Manny's Steakhouse.

Chad Greenway's Celebrity Waiter Night will benefit Chad Greenway's Lead the Way Foundation whose mission is to enrich the lives of individuals and families in need by providing seriously ill and physically challenged children throughout the Twin Cities with daily support and life-changing experiences.

Greenway and his Vikings teammates will step off the field and into Manny's Steakhouse for one evening to mix and mingle with foundation supporters. The interactive evening will feature live and silent auctions with incredible memorabilia. Outside memorabilia is prohibited.

Proceeds will benefit Lead The Way's programs like Chad's Locker, the TendHER Heart Brunch, Field of Dreams and a playground build at the Ronald McDonald House near University of Minnesota's campus.

Last year, more than $200,000 was raised during Chad Greenway's Celebrity Waiter Night.

Tickets and sponsorships are available to the public and can be purchased at chadgreenway.org.
