You can show your support for the family of fallen Little Elm Officer Jerry Walker on Monday at several fast food locations.
The Whataburger on Stonebrook Parkway in Frisco will donate 20 percent of its sales from 5 to 8 p.m. to the officer’s family.
Also, volunteers will sell t-shirts and collect donations at Chick-fil-A restaurants in Denton, Frisco, Plano and Mansfield. A portion of the sales from 5 to 9 p.m. will also go directly to Walker’s family.
Organizers expect to sell more than 8,000 shirts.
