Wow, take me back a few years to my grocery store days. As you know, I am really pushing hard this Holiday season to get meals served to the hungry. So many families are hurting this season and we all need to pull together to help these families. I am doing just that by volunteering my time tomorrow December 14, 2011 as Celebrity Guest Cashier at Lowes Foods in Boone, NC.
Mom and food bloggers from NC and SC are joining efforts as celebrity cashiers this week. Tweets and posts are powerful communication tools in today’s world. That’s why Lowes Foods has enlisted the help of North and South Carolina bloggers to make its 17th annual Friends Feeding Friends food drive an even bigger success.

This is the seventeenth year that Lowes Foods has partnered with local food banks to help feed families in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. This year’s goal is to collect more than 600,000 pounds of food to provide around 504,000 meals to those in need. Currently, stores have received nearly 40,000 pounds. Come out and see me. I would love your help in achieving the goal of 600,000 pounds. No help is too big or too small. Don’t have the time to pick up food? No worries, we have you covered. Just come on in and purchase pre-made bags of non-perishable items most needed in the food banks in any Lowes Foods or Just $ave Foods store. Donation bins are located at the front of each store for quick and easy drop off. You can also choose to donate cash at the register in increments of $1.00, $3.00 and $5.00 amounts.
I hope to see some of my biggest fans there tomorrow!
