An innovative program launched by the Kyle Chamber of Commerce has enlisted a variety of local restaurants in an initiative to help families in need during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Restaurants participating in “Meals 4 One and All” will, for every four entrees sold, donate one meal to
organizations that provide food and services to families in need throughout Hays County. Included are HaysHope2Go (a program of the Hays CISD), Hays County Food Bank and the San Marcos Youth Council.
“The program is a win, win for everyone in Hays County,” said Julie Snyder, CEO of the Kyle Area Chamber of Commerce. “Restaurants are generating meals for nonprofits struggling to keep up with demand while driving
sales, which allows them to remain open, keep employees, and offer an essential need to their community.”
“The solution to our challenges can be found when we work together,” said Steve Swindell, owner of Ilario’s
Italian Cuisine & Catering. “There’s a full circle of people who want to help one another. ‘Meals 4-One and All’ is simply the vehicle to achieve it.”
Currently more than a dozen restaurants are participating with more joining each day. Find a complete list of participating restaurants at https://www.kylechamber.org/meals-4/1-and-all and stay connected on Facebook
