SALISBURY, N.C., Sept. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of Feeding America's® Hunger Action Month™, Food Lion Feeds will donate more than 1,200 service hours and more than 1 million meals through its inaugural "The Great Pantry Makeover" event. During the month-long volunteer service event, hundreds of Food Lion associates will volunteer at 38 local food pantries, which will help the grocer take another step toward its commitment of providing 500 million meals by the end of 2020.
"Giving back to our communities is part of who we are as a company and something we are just as passionate about as serving our customers in our stores," said Meg Ham, Food Lion president. "Hunger Action Month provides a great opportunity for us to celebrate a month of service through 'The Great Pantry Makeover,' so our associates can spend time in our communities remodeling and restocking local food pantries to help them continue to provide food to people who are making tough choices because they're struggling with hunger."
"The Great Pantry Makeover" kicks off today, with service projects planned throughout the month. Volunteers will paint and clean pantries, install shelving and other equipment donations such as refrigerators and freezers, and stock shelves with food donations. The list of pantries includes:
"By donating 500 million meals by the end of 2020, Food Lion is proud to be a part of solving hunger in our local communities," added Ham. "We look forward to launching 'The Great Pantry Makeover' so no one has to choose between dinner and rent or medicine and buying groceries."
Hunger Action Month, held annually in September, is a nationwide campaign to mobilize action on the issue of hunger. Founded by Feeding America, the awareness effort brings greater attention to the issue of hunger in America and promotes ways for individuals everywhere to get involved with the movement to solve it.
