CHICAGO — Chipotle lovers can help out Chicago Public Schools by grabbing a meal at the fast casual chain Thursday.

Half of the money from all sales Thursday will benefit CPS SCORE!, an athletic league for CPS elementary school students. The league works to ensure all kids can play sports like basketball, volleyball and floor hockey. 

Those who wish to participate can buy from any Chipotle in Chicago from 10:45 a.m.-10 p.m. Participants must mention the fundraiser or show a flyer for it before paying.

"This generous donation by Chipotle will help support a first-of-its-kind athletic initiative that guarantees playing time for all students and instills teamwork, perseverance and camaraderie in our young learners,” said CPS CEO Forrest Claypool in a news release.
