Help Chick-fil-A Provide Meals to Local Kids

A Cobb County franchise is partnering with MUST Ministries to provide a thousand meals for needy children over the holiday season.

COBB COUNTY, GA -- A local Chick-fil-A is hoping customers will be extra generous during the holiday season and help them provide meals for kids who may not have as much to eat while they’re on holiday break.

The East Lake franchise on Roswell Road is teaming up with MUST Ministries to provide 1,000 meals to less fortunate children from Dec. 28-30, the Marietta Daily Journal reports. The deadline to donate is Dec. 26. So far, 700 meals have been paid for.

How do you get involved? Simply purchase an extra meal the next time you visit the East Lake Chick-fil-A and the company will match that meal with a meal donation to MUST Ministries, the MDJ says.
