It’s difficult to help without knowing where the variable’s value is coming from, but one method is to put the snippet tag where you want the chunk’s HTML to appear and a placeholder in the chunk for the value.

Placeholder:
[[+placeholder_name]]

Snippet tag:
[[!SnippetName]]

Then in the snippet, set the variable to the value and send that to $modx->getChunk() at the end of the snippet:

$myVariable = 'someValue';

return $modx->getChunk('chunkName', array('placeholder_name' => $myVariable));

MODX will return the chunk’s HTML with the placeholder replaced by the value of the variable.
