Purchase Holiday Meals in a Bag for Families Facing Hunger
This holiday season, you can help those facing hunger, in our 11-parish service area through Associated Food Stores and Coca-Cola’s Holiday Meal in a Bag promotion.
Red, pre-packed, Coca-Cola bags filled with non-perishable holiday food items can be purchased for only $10.00 at participating Associated Grocers Food Stores. Once the bag is purchased, you can drop it in the Food Bank boxes inside the stores. The bags will be picked up from the stores by volunteers and distributed throughout our 11-parish service area in an effort to feed the hungry for the holidays.
Together, we’re fighting hunger!
