Chick-fil-A's ties to a controversial Christian charity are going viral as the chain expands into the UK. Here's the breakdown of what happened.
Viral posts on social media have condemned Chick-fil-A for the donations, specifically those given to the National Christian Foundation , a major Christian nonprofit.
The WinShape Foundation, a nonprofit backed by the Cathy family that is mostly funded by donations from Chick-fil-A, no longer donates to the NCF. The NCF donated $65,120 to WinShape in 2017. Last week, Chick-fil-A opened its first permanent location in the UK, in the town of Reading in Berkshire, England. is being organized for this Saturday in Reading, with the goal of enlightening "potential patrons to the Chick-fil-A chain and their anti LGBT+ stance." The Facebook invitation to the protest draws connections between Chick-fil-A and anti-LGBTQ legislation in Uganda, including the "Kill the Gays" bill that would impose the death penalty for homosexuality.
