Unlike many restaurants, Chick-fil-A is known for more than just food: it's also famous for being closed on Sundays.
But in the name of a good cause, some
locations in Texas northeast of Dallas turned the lights on Sunday after
tornadoes ripped through the state and killed 11 people.
"The locations were not open to the public, but team members from various restaurants in the area did volunteer to prepare and distribute free food to responders and others affected by the tornadoes—serving those in need during this tragic event," said Amanda Hannah, a spokeswoman for the chain, in an email.
Chick-fil-A has maintained its rare Sunday closure policy since the chicken chain opened. The weekly day off is meant to encourage employees to rest, spend time with family and worship if they choose. CNBC
