Honestly, I think very little will actually change, though. Their president Dan Cathy is still highly homophobic. Now he'll be making donations to hate groups in his own name instead of in the company name. Which means money spent at Chick-fil-a will still be used to fund hate groups, but less directly.
All well and good (at least for Chick-Fil_A...which is NOT Dan Cathy). It was a poor PR decision on their part. Let a persons personal bigotry remain a possession of their person, not the purvey of a business which employs and is relied upon by others who may not share in it (but would nevertheless be threatened by it).
