Food Lion is continuing its support for military families by hosting its seventh annual “Thriller on the Griller” events, which kicked off in several North Carolina and South Carolina locations. Each event will raise funds for Hope For The Warriors, a national nonprofit dedicated to restoring a sense of self, family and hope for our service members and military families.
Through these events, Food Lion customers will have several options to support Hope For The Warriors. For a small donation, customers can purchase lunch donated by vendors and bid on silent auction items such as bicycles, golf bags and autographed memorabilia at the “Thriller on the Griller” events.
“Food Lion offers "Thriller on the Griller" events as a fun and creative way for our customers to support our military members and their families,” says Joe Stock, director of operations for Food Lion and event organizer. “Last year, our vendors, customers and associates helped us raise more than $100,000 for Hope For The Warriors. Whether it's in a Food Lion store, at "Thriller on the Griller"' events or anywhere in our community, our customers can count on their local Food Lion team."
