Be a Sweetheart in Asheville with MANNA Foodbank
Feb 10 all-day
Asheville Mast General Store
Twenty-one is a “sweet” age! On this weekend before Valentine’s Day, choose your sweetie’s favorite sweets at Mast General Store, and join us in celebrating the 21st year of Be a Sweetheart by helping feed neighbors in our community.
For every pound of bulk candy purchased Saturday, February 10 – Sunday, February 11, Mast General Store will donate $1 to a local food security partner. The Asheville Mast Store’s partner is MANNA FoodBank.
While it doesn’t sound like much, a single dollar goes a long way towards fighting hunger! One dollar provides $5 in food value for MANNA FoodBank, which uses its network of resources to turn $1 into three or more meals.
Thank you for supporting Be a Sweetheart and our local food security partner as we make our community a sweeter place with a Valentine everyone can enjoy.
