One of Ozarks Food Harvest’s most recognizable fundraisers is the annual holiday hunger awareness and fund drive, CHECK OUT HUNGER™. Every year from mid-November through the end of December, local hometown grocers across The Food Bank’s service area partner with Ozarks Food Harvest to display CHECK OUT HUNGER™ signage.
Shoppers will find displays and scan cards in the check-out lanes at their local supermarkets. When a shopper chooses to add a $1 tax-free donation to his or her grocery bill, the cashier simply scans the donation barcode and the donor has the opportunity to sign a donor card for display. The donation is added to the bill and appears on the receipt.
Give generously when you see the CHECK OUT HUNGER™ displays in your supermarket. For every $1 donated The Food Bank provides $10 worth of food distribution across the Ozarks.
Please support the participating local hometown grocers who partner with the community food bank annually: Akin's, Bistro Market, Country Mart, Dillons, Harter House, Murfin's Market, Price Cutter, Ramey, Smillie's Market, Smitty's, Summer Fresh Supermarket & Woods Supermarket.
For more information, please contact Lindsey Neddenriep at (417) 865-3411, ext. 110.
