This year, 100,000 Meals is from May 21st to June 9th!
Puritan joins the Central Virginia Food Bank each Spring to raise food and funds for the 100,000 Meals For Kids program. We collect non-perishable foods and donations at all of our locations and through our Free Home Delivery. Clck here for 100,000 Meals for Kids tools (printable flyer, poster, coloring page, and a letter to parents). In 2011, our 100,000 Meals campaign was from April 17th to April 30 and we collected food and funds for 70,247 meals. Thanks to all who helped feed the kids last year, and we look forward to doing even more this year. |

 Matt's Great 8 Tailgate
We Will again host Matt's Great 8 Tailgate at the Puritan Staples Mill location on Wednesday, June 6th. Matt DiNardo, weather anchor of WRIC TV8's of Good Morning Richmond, will conduct live remote televised cut-ins all day as we raise food and funds for our 100,000 Meals campaign. Visitors of all ages are invited to come by to enjoy free coffee and Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the morning and grilled hot dogs and hamburgers during the day. There will be live music throughout the day, Nutzy from the Flying Squirrels, and many friends will stop by to offer their help and support. We also have an afternoon party from 4:30 to 6:30 with a great band that will be a great opportunity for networking.
More importantly, we will collect a lot of food and funds for the Central Virginia Foodbank. At the 2011 Tailgate, we raised enough donations for 30,147 meals. The event was a huge success and is a great part for our annual 100,000 Meals campaign. We hope to do even better this year. See a video of last year's event here. |
