CBRL - Cracker Barrel Country Musicians and Customers Join Forces to Donate Meals to Healthcare Workers
Combining the distinctive twang of country music and the savory taste of home-style cooking in the fight against COVID-19, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store (NASDAQ: CBRL) has started a new push to donate free meals to medical workers in three states. The casual dining company plans to donate a minimum of 5,000 meals, and potentially up to 10,000 meals, as part of its "There's Comfort in Giving" initiative.
Cracker Barrel's initial donation consists of 5,000 meals, to be given to doctors, nurses, and first responders at hospitals in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. Each of the meals will consist of a main course of either meatloaf or chicken and dumplings, along with a hash brown casserole and green beans.
