Here’s how to support the Special Olympics and get a free chicken sandwich

The Beaufort Police Department and Chick-fil-A on Boundary Street are uniting to raise funds to donate to Special Olympics South Carolina this June.

From 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on June 9 at Chick-fil-A, officers will be selling the 2018 Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics t-shirts for $20, according to a police news release. The shirts will come with a free Chick-fil-A sandwich coupon, or folks can donate any amount of money without buying a shirt.

There are over 25,500 Special Olympics athletes in South Carolina who participate in the 26 different sports at the games, according to the release.
