<p>&#8220;Together with our Owner/Operators, we&#8217;re proud to serve the people who make our communities a better place, and this is an important time to say thank you to some of our everyday heroes,&#8221; said <span class="xn-person">Joe Erlinger</span>, President, McDonald&#8217;s <span class="xn-location">USA</span>. &#8220;We were honored to give away 12 million free Thank You Meals to first responders and healthcare workers last year and now, with educators going above and beyond, we&#8217;re excited to recognize them in a way only McDonald&#8217;s can.&#8221;</p>

<p>All educators &#8211; such as teachers, administrators and school staff &#8211; can simply head to their local participating McDonald&#8217;s during breakfast hours from <span class="xn-chron">Oct. 11-15</span> and show a valid work ID for a free breakfast. The Thank You Meals will be served in a classic Happy Meal box filled with an entrée breakfast sandwich, Hash Browns and a beverage. Sandwich choices include an Egg McMuffin, a Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit or a Sausage Biscuit. Beverage options include a medium McCafé hot or iced coffee or a medium soft drink.</p>
<p>McDonald&#8217;s franchisees have supported educators in the local neighborhoods they own and operate their restaurants for decades, including initiatives like McTeachers&#8217; Night, coordinating food drops at educators&#8217; homes after school, and free meals during the pandemic.</p>
<p>&#8220;As a former teacher, this Thank You Meal means the world to me, and I know it will touch my customers and my employees,&#8221; said <span class="xn-person">Stefanie Cabrera Bentancourt</span>, McDonald&#8217;s Owner/Operator based in <span class="xn-location">Miami, Florida</span>. &#8220;Educators are the backbone of our communities. They&#8217;ve done so much for us, and it&#8217;s an honor to join my fellow Owner/Operators across the country to celebrate them.&#8221;</p>
<p>One free meal offered per day and ID is required. McDonald&#8217;s has nearly 14,000 restaurants in the U.S.</p>
