Chick-fil-A Fundraiser Brings in $2,776 for Ireland Nugent

Numerous Chick-fil-A restaurants in Pinellas and Pasco counties participated in a fundraiser on May 8 to benefit Ireland Nugent, age 2, who was severely injured in a lawn mower accident.

We'd like to give a "Patch on the back" to our local Chick-fil-A restaurants, which donated $2,776.37 to the Ireland Nugent fund.

Ireland Nugent is the Palm Harbor 2-year-old whose ankles were severed in a lawn mower accident at her home last month. She was recently released from the hospital.

Numerous Chick-fil-A restaurants in Pinellas and Pasco counties participated in the fundraiser on May 8. Customers who dined at the restaurants wrote "Ireland" on the back of their receipts and a portion of the sales were donated to a fund for Ireland.
