Global Impact

From the beginning, Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy believed in a simple but powerful idea:
“a great company is a caring company.” Everyone’s job at Chick-fil-A is to care for and serve others. No matter the title or job description, our reason for coming to work is to generously share our time, talents and resources.

Service and impact

Every day, thousands of local Chick-fil-A® Owner-Operators, Restaurant Team Members and staff show care in meaningful ways, creating impactful change in their neighborhoods throughout the U.S., Puerto Rico and Canada. Our community engagement giving efforts reflect our commitment to our Corporate Purpose: “To glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us. To have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A.”

Our progress

In our annual Chick-fil-A Global Impact reports, you can learn about our corporate social responsibility efforts and how local Owner-Operators, Team Members and staff have a positive impact on their communities.

Chick-fil-A Shared Table Program

For too many of our neighbors, a nourishing meal each day is not guaranteed. Local Owner-Operators work to change that through the Chick-fil-A Shared Table® program, where quality, surplus food that may otherwise go unused is donated to nearby food banks, shelters and other nonprofits to feed children, seniors and others. More than 2,400 Chick-fil-A® restaurants across the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada and the U.K. participate, and that number keeps growing each year.
