Largo, FL – Pinellas County residents grabbing a sweet treat this month will also be helping local families in need, thanks to a new holiday partnership announced this week.
According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, the Chick-fil-A located at 10075 Ulmerton Road in Largo will donate 10% of all cookie sales throughout November to the Sheriff’s Christmas Sharing Project. The annual program provides necessities, gifts, and support to families across Pinellas County, including crime victims, vulnerable households, and children facing hardship during the holiday season.
The Sheriff’s Office said every cookie purchased contributes directly to the agency’s ability to distribute food, clothing, toiletries, and holiday gifts to families who may otherwise go without. Officials noted that the need locally continues to rise, making community support especially important for 2025’s holiday season.
Residents can also donate directly to the program by visiting RideAndRunWithTheStars.com, where additional details are available for the Sheriff’s Office’s annual “Ride & Run With the Stars” event. The holiday-themed fundraiser, considered one of the agency’s largest charitable gatherings, benefits the same Christmas Sharing Project and draws runners, cyclists, families, and supporters from across the Tampa Bay region.
The Sheriff’s Office encouraged residents to participate in any way they can—whether through cookie purchases, direct donations, or by signing up for the upcoming Ride & Run event. Officials said even small contributions collectively make a significant impact on Pinellas County families during the holiday season.
