Restaurant Raises $9G for Food Bank Despite Coronavirus Challenges

The coronavirus pandemic has been particularly tough on the restaurant industry, but one Arkansas restaurant still managed to raise more than $9,000 for a local food bank.

On Thursday, Chicken Salad Chick, in Fayetteville, Arkansas, donated $9,400 to the Northwest Arkansas (NWA) Food Bank.

According to a Facebook post from the food bank, the donation is expected to provide 94,000 meals to people in Northwest Arkansas who are food insecure.

“Thank you Sharon and your team for your generous support of our organization,” NWA Food Bank wrote on Facebook. “We appreciate you!”
