Chick-fil-A Houston donated $36,000 to nine local charities fighting hunger, combatting food insecurity, and supporting the community. This donation was matched by the Astros Foundation for a grand total of $72,000, which was evenly distributed to the charities below:
- Hope Impacts
- Grace Episcopal ChurchFood Pantry
- Fort Bend Family Promise
- Finca Tres Robles
- Star of Hope
- Bay Area Homeless Shelter
- Montgomery County Food Pantry
- Humble Area Assistance Ministries
- Texas Veterans Athletic Association
“We are humbled to support these local charities doing indispensable work, feeding and caring for the Houston community,” said Drew Ellis, local restaurant Operator of Chick-fil-A Houston Center and Chick-fil-A Sawyer Heights. “This donation was particularly special to us because Operators had the opportunity to nominate a charity in their area of the city. We’re so glad these funds will directly benefit our neighbors in need.”
