Specialty grocer supports Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign with second annual Cupcakes for a Cause Event
GREENSBORO, N.C. – The Fresh Market is proud to continue its national partnership with Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry® campaign. This September, The Fresh Market will host its second annual Cupcakes for a Cause event to raise funds and awareness for No Kid Hungry, which is dedicated to ending childhood hunger in America by surrounding children with healthy food where they live, learn and play.
The Fresh Market will host its Cupcakes for a Cause campaign from September 12 through September 28. Shoppers can make a donation to No Kid Hungry by purchasing paper cupcakes at The Fresh Market’s checkout counters, with a minimum $1 donation, to show support for this important cause.
On Saturday, September 27 and Sunday, September 28, The Fresh Market stores nationwide will host a cupcake decorating event from 1 p.m. – 6 p.m. For a $3 donation, shoppers will be able to decorate and take home a delicious cupcake from the in-store bakery. The Fresh Market will donate 100 percent of the money raised to No Kid Hungry, with a minimum guaranteed donation of $150,000, to support its efforts to connect children in need with nutritious food and teach their families how to cook healthy, affordable meals.
In addition to the Cupcakes for a Cause events, shoppers can purchase this year’s limited-edition No Kid Hungry reusable shopping bag, featuring the winning artwork from The Fresh Market’s 2014 Design Our Bag Challenge. The specialty grocer will donate 50 percent of the retail price of each bag to No Kid Hungry, with a minimum donation of $150,000 in 2014.
