Tyson Foods on Friday donated 29,000 pounds of boneless chicken to the United Way of Metropolitan Atlanta to feed people in need and promote public awareness of hunger in America.

Tyson and United Way are partnering with Gwinnett County Public Schools to distribute the donated food to the community.

According to food banks nationwide, meat is also the most requested and least available food. Tyson Foods has committed to donate one million pounds of protein to 37 food banks across the country during the month of March.
