On Thursday, March 7th at 10 AM, Chick-Fil-A will present The Salvation Army with a soup donation. The soup being donated was generated from the Buy One, Give One Soup Drive held by Chick-Fil-A between January 14th and February 15th. The donation will be made at the Chick-Fil-A Broadway Crossing location, 5716 South Broadway Ave., where representatives of The Salvation Army will be in attendance along with Chick-Fil-A Owner/Operator Ed King and the Chick-Fil-A Cows.

The Salvation Army in Tyler knows the need that exists to feed the hungry in our neighborhoods and the role that the 6,523 bowls of soup donated last year played in meeting those needs. Tyler’s awareness and desire to meet the human need continues to increase. As part of this year’s “Buy 1, Give 1” Soup Drive, 6,527 bowls of soup will be donated to The Salvation Army in Tyler to help feed the homeless and destitute. Over 5,000 hot meals are being served each week at The Salvation Army, no small feat indeed, and the generous donation to this cause from Chick-fil-A every year is tremendously helpful.

Chick-fil-A graciously and generously gives to The Salvation Army enough bowls of soup to feed thousands of Tyler residents who may otherwise be unable to receive the food and nutrition they need. On Thursday, Chick-fil-A and The Salvation Army will be celebrating the generosity of the Tyler community. The Tyler community continues to be a tremendous blessing, meeting the needs of those in our own community through donations, volunteerism, goods and services and, every winter through the charity of Chick-fil-A, bowls of soup.
