NBC15 has announced the launch of its 25th annual Share Your Holidays kickoff campaign, a food drive to benefit Second Harvest Food Bank. This year’s theme is, “Nourish. Thrive. Transform.” Organizers have set a goal of collecting donations for 5.5 million meals.
Second Harvest and Two Men and a Truck have partnered for the rollout event today, which will see roughly 300 food collection barrels set up throughout southern Wisconsin. Participating grocery stores will host the following events throughout November and December:
- Metcalfe’s Markets “Feed the Need” event (Nov. 2–30) will offer a 5% discount on purchases with the coupon, donating that 5% to Second Harvest; accept donated funds at the register (Nov. 2–Dec. 31); and accept donated food in collection barrels at all locations (Nov. 2–Dec. 31).
- Woodman’s Food Markets will accept donated funds at the register for its “Check Out Hunger” event (Nov. 2–Dec. 31).
- Metro Market and Pick ’n Save will accept donated funds at the register and donated food in collection barrels at all locations for its “Zero Hunger — Zero Waste” event (Nov. 5–Dec. 31).
- Hy-Vee will accept donation funds at the register and donated food in collection barrels at all locations for its “100 Million Meals” event (Nov. 16–Dec. 31).
