Message from Chick-fil-A

“For 22 years, the Chick-fil-A Classic Holiday Basketball Tournament, sponsored by Chick-fil-A Midlands restaurants have supported local students through scholarships. Since its inception, proceeds from the tournament have provided more than $230,000, through the Greater Columbia Educational Advancement Foundation. Chick-fil-A remains committed to investing and growing our local community by supporting youth, hunger and education. After thoughtful consideration, Midland Chick-fil-A restaurants have decided to end its 22-year title sponsorship of the Chick-fil-A Classic Holiday Basketball tournament. We are thankful for our sponsors and faithful supporters who have helped make this possible over the years.”

The Greater Columbia Educational Advancement Foundation wants to thank the Midlands Chick-fil-A restaurants for your commitment and financial support through the two decades plus of the tournament. GCEAF is exploring the possibility of a new sponsor and more information will be forthcoming.
