Ready for a feel good story?

Hundreds of Charlotte families are getting a Thanksgiving meal thanks to theCharlotte Hornets and Food Lion Feeds. The pair have teamed up to provide meals to 1,000 families in need for the 14th annual Cornucopia Initiative.

Food for thought: Nearly 12 percent of Mecklenburg County’s households are considered food insecure.

Food Lion is supplying the turkey and all the fixings. Each meal has enough food to feed a family of four. Approximately 4,000 people will be served this holiday season.

The meals will be distributed to families at Charlotte-Mecklenburg schools through Second Harvest’s school-based mobile pantry program.

“We believe no one should have to choose between dinner and rent or gas and groceries,” said Food Lion President Meg Ham. “We are committed to helping end hunger in the towns and cities we serve."
