The holiday season is upon us, bringing with it a sense of joy and togetherness. However, for many in our community, hunger remains a persistent issue. That's where the "Tackle Hunger" food drive comes in. Rouses Markets and the New Orleans Saints have joined forces to make a significant impact on replenishing food banks in the area.

Bringing Together the Community

During this food drive, Saints alumni, the team mascot, and the cheer krewe come together to collect, sort, and package donations for Second Harvest Food Bank. It's a wonderful sight to see the community coming together for a common cause. Not only can you participate in person by helping with the sorting and packaging, but you can also make a difference by donating cash at any Rouses Market location. Nonperishable food and household supplies are greatly encouraged, as they provide essential items to those in need.

Collecting with Purpose

Imagine the impact that each donation can have. Every nonperishable food item or household supply adds up and helps to feed families and individuals who are struggling during the holiday season. The efforts of Saints alumni and the team mascot add an extra layer of excitement and motivation. It shows that even our local sports heroes are committed to making a difference in the community.

Donating for a Greater Good

Donating cash at the checkouts is another convenient way to contribute to the "Tackle Hunger" cause. It allows the food bank to purchase a variety of items that may be in high demand. By giving a little, you can have a big impact on the lives of those facing hunger. This food drive is not just about providing food for a few days; it's about creating a sustainable solution and making a lasting difference in the community.
