In 2014, Food Lion Feeds partnered with Food Lion customers to provide more than 1 million meals to families in need through the sale of special Food Lion Feeds reusable bags sold in its stores. The grocer is now inviting kids ages 5 to 14 to participate in its Food Lion Feeds “Roar Against Hunger” Design-a-Reusable-Bag Contest. The winning design will be featured on next year’s Food Lion Feeds reusable bag, which will be sold in more than 1,100 stores in June 2015. The campaign is anticipated to help provide another 1 million meals to families in need.

To participate in the contest, kids are asked to draw how they would help feed someone who is hungry. In their drawings, kids can show how everyone in the community can help – from family members, friends, their heroes, their school or other organization – or even the Food Lion lion. In addition to having his or her drawing featured on the 2015 reusable bag, the grand prize winner will also receive an iPad Mini2 and a $1,000 donation to a food bank in his or her name. Three runners-up will also receive an iPad Mini and a $1,000 donation to a food bank in their names.

There is no purchase necessary to enter or win. Entry forms, specific instructions and the official rules are available at www.foodlion.com/feeds. All entries must be received by Food Lion by Nov. 21. Open to legal residents, ages 5 to 14, of Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky., Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania. South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia ages with permission of their parent or legal guardian.
