Thank you to Chick-fil-A at city gate Naples for inviting us to celebrate the opening of your new location and for the generous $25,000 gift in support of our work. That investment helps provide 50,000 meals, with a direct impact on families, seniors, and children in Collier County and across our five-county region.

We appreciate your continued support of our Collier neighbors and the role you play in helping make this work possible. #community #hcfbswfl #swfl
