Thomas Purtell, Owner/Operator of the local La Habra Chick-fil-A provided all our clients and the volunteers who delivered the meals a hot sandwich, chips and a delicious cookie! Everyone was thrilled with this special treat! The following is the special message that was provided in each box:

Dear La Habra Friend –

You and I don’t know each other. I don’t know enough about you to thank you for all you have done to better our community. I don’t know your situation that has led you to be a recipient of  La Habra’s Meals on Wheels. I don’t know what a typical day holds for you. I don’t know how many visitors you get nor how much affection you are shown. There is a lot about you I don’t know. However, what I do know is that you are deserving of dignity, honor, and respect. Furthermore, the way you can tell if someone needs encouragement is whether or not they are still breathing. Therefore, allow me to say, thank you for making La Habra the amazing place it is to live, work, learn, serve, and recreate, as well as for being the very best part of Chick-fil-A!

What you should know is that you are not forgotten, and we pray that today’s meal provided by Chick-fil-A would bring a smile to your face and a little bit of joy to your heart knowing that Chick-fil-A Cares About Community! At your service, Thomas Purtell

We were able to use Chick-fil-A's heated bags to delivery the hot sandwiches.

Upon delivery our volunteers packaged the meal in the to-go boxes with the wonderful note.

Each box contained the laminated note from Thomas Purtell.
