Tucson Coronavirus: Arby's Donates Meals To Healthcare Workers

TUCSON, AZ—A Tuscon-area fast food restaurant is doing its part to feed front-line workers caring for the sick during the new coronavirus pandemic.

Known for their roast beef sandwiches, Arby's recently delivered dozens of free meals to healthcare workers at Canyon Vista Medical Center. Each bagged lunch contained heartfelt messages that read "Lining up behind the front lines," "Thank you," "Great work," and "Much appreciated."

"There is always GOOD to be done during a time like this!" the restaurant said in a Facebook post. "We are so thankful for all they are doing for the community!"

The restaurant also recently donated meals to healthcare workers at Tucscon Medical Center and the National Guard who is assisting the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona.

In between serving free meals to front-line workers, the restaurant continues to serve the general public. While its dining room remains closed, customers can still place an order at the drive thru or by delivery through DoorDash.
