Yum! Brands' KFC Chain to Donate 1 Million Pieces of Chicken to Coronavirus Relief
To help out communities in need during the coronavirus pandemic, KFC is donating 1 million pieces of fried chicken across America. The free additional chicken supply will be distributed to all of the nation's approximately 4,000 KFC franchises.
The Yum! Brands (NYSE: YUM) owned chain is giving franchisees wide latitude to choose what to do with the free chicken, enabling them to tailor their programs to local conditions. Some of the suggestions include giving zero-cost meals to medical personnel or first responders, donating chicken to local hunger relief organizations, or just handing out free chicken to people simply to create positive feelings. The company says individual restaurants can use the relief for "whatever their hometown needs most."
