The True Inspiration Awards were established in 2015 to carry on Chick-fil-A Founder S. Truett Cathy's legacy of generosity and community service. Individual grants range from $30,000 to $350,000. To be selected, a nonprofit must work to address a key issue that aligns with Chick-fil-A's corporate social responsibility priorities: Caring for People, Caring for Others through Food, Caring for Our Communities, and Caring for our Planet.
