No Kid Hungry benefits from bags
Last year’s inaugural “Design Our Bag Challenge” winning bags have raised over $50,000 for No Kid Hungry, a national nonprofit working to end childhood hunger in America. Now The Fresh Market is looking to showcase more children’s artwork on its limited edition reusable shopping bags. The Fresh Market will donate 50 percent of the retail price of each bag sold to No Kid Hungry, with a minimum donation of $150,000 in 2014.
Children ages 15 and under who have a love for both food and art can submit a drawing of their favorite product sold at The Fresh Market stores. The top two artists, voted on by The Fresh Market employees, will have their designs printed on reusable shopping bags, which will be sold in The Fresh Market stores across the country in 2014.
In addition to having their drawings featured on the company’s reusable shopping bag, the winners of the Design Our Bag Challenge will each receive a $200 gift card for The Fresh Market, a kid-friendly goodie bag filled with an artist kit and other edible treats, and accolades via The Fresh Market’s social media channels. In addition, each of The Fresh Market’s stores nationwide will award their stores’ top two finalists a $50 gift card.
The contest begins Wednesday, Jan. 1 and runs through Jan. 28. Locally, The Fresh Market is in Annapolis on Solomon’s Island Road with Maryland stores also in Baltimore, Rockville, Towson. For details on the contest visit The Fresh Market’s website.
