Macon Army veteran receives vehicle from Progressive

The vehicle will help Markwan “Chef G” Gordon support his family, expand his businesses and continue providing meals to people in need.

MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) — A Macon Army veteran who has been relying on rideshares and public transportation is receiving a vehicle from Progressive to help support his family and grow his businesses.

Markwan “Chef G” Gordon, a U.S. Army veteran, father and small-business owner, has been relying on alternative transportation after losing access to his family’s vehicle.

The car will help him get his family where they need to go, expand his catering business and continue providing meals to people in need across Middle Georgia.

“It’ll Help Feed my family in terms of me being able to continue my chef business and also continuing the business of filming and production as well,” he said. “This is also a big opportunity for me to give back even more to the communities that I cook in, as well as feeding the homeless, feeding the sick, feeding kids and things of that nature. So, this is like more. It puts me right in line with my purpose and what I’m supposed to be doing.”

Gordon says having reliable transportation will make a big difference for him and his family.
