The restaurant chain also created an online wall of gratitude with thank you notes and personalized messages of appreciation from people around the country.

From now until May 9, Chipotle will also match 10% of limited-edition e-gift card purchases and donate the funds to the American Nurses Foundation to support their mission to transform the nation's health through the power of nursing.

In 2020, Chipotle helped fuel front-line workers with 200,000 burrito donations to health care facilities across the country. The brand also previously ran an e-gift card program that donated 10% of purchases to Direct Relief, the organization that provides personal protective equipment (PPE) and essential medical items to health care workers in the U.S. and around the world.
