Tyson Foods presented grant award checks to two Amarillo area organizations to help their cause.

Tyson officials presented $16,000 to Amarillo Chin Christian Church and $16,000 to the Karen Community of Amarillo to help focus on supporting the Asian American community, immigrants and refugees.

The donations are the latest contribution of a series of grants Tyson announced earlier this year to support national and local nonprofits that are working to support people of Asian descent around the country.
