Every autumn for the past 19 years, Stop & Shop's Food For Friends has sponsored a fundraiser, raising $1,000,000 each year to help support local hunger relief organizations.
This year's program runs October 31-December 4, 2008 and their goal is to once again raise $1,000,000 for area food banks.
Right now, I'm holding eight (8) $25.00 gift cards (thank you, StopandShop.com) and, in the spirit of thanks and giving, I'm going to donate half of them to our local food bank and offer four (4) of our readers to win the rest.
Because, I roll like that.
