Teachers have it tough, and getting this school year going is turning out to be even more work than usual thanks to the coronavirus pandemic. To make it easier, KFC is donating 1 million pieces of chicken for its restaurants to share with teachers through its “back-to-school buckets” program, the Louisville-based fried chicken chain announced Thursday. Local KFC franchisees will provide educators in their communities with chicken by catering training meetings, delivering buckets to teachers preparing a virtual curriculum or staff working to keep schools clean, according to the company. In March, the company donated 1 million pieces of chicken to doctors, nurses, first responders and other essential workers. Most of those restaurants aren’t open for dine-in customers, but they are offering other options like drive-thru, carry-out or delivery service.
