Chik Fil-A Owner Generosity Goes Viral

Courtesy of WSMV, last week, a man came to the Highway 280 Chick fil-A looking to work for food.

But owner Mark Meadows decided to just help him. Meadows also noticed the man needed more than just food.

"I said, 'Well, you need gloves.' He was hesitant about even taking the gloves from me. I said, 'You need to take some the gloves, I can get some more.' I had some sitting right here, gave him my gloves, then went and got him something to eat and then that was pretty much it," Meadows said.

"Most businesses would force him out, but I watched as the manager walked up to him and asked if he could do anything for him. Before the man could even answer, the manager asked if he had a pair of gloves and walked to the table at which he'd been sitting and picked up his own. As he handed the man his gloves, he asked another employee to get him something to eat," Stoker wrote.

"I'm amazed. I'm amazed at what social media can do. All I did was the right thing. I mean, it wasn't that big of a deal, but I did the right thing," Meadows said.

Meadows will tell you it's because of the Chick-fil-A's reputation that this went viral. That may be true, but it was also because of Meadow's heart and the message to help the less fortunate.

Meadows is the same Chick-fil-A owner who handed out hundreds of meals to people who were stranded in their cars on Highway 280 during last January's snow storms.
