Feeding Southwest Virginia recently wrapped up its participation in the 15th annual statewide Legal Food Frenzy, where three Southwest Virginia law firms top won awards.
Twenty-one law offices and organizations in a 26-county, nine-city service area joined in the competition, hosting creative activities designed to raise food and funds for local food banks.
Together, they raised more than $41,000 to support Feeding Southwest Virginia. Statewide, all firms participating raised more than $350,000, or the equivalent of 1.4 million pounds of food for all seven Virginia Federation Food Banks.
â2021âs Legal Food Frenzy has been the biggest ever for Feeding Southwest Virginia,â said Pamela Irvine, CEO of Feeding Southwest Virginia. âWe so appreciate our local legal organizations joining the fight against hunger in our region in such a big way, especially this year. Their generosity will make a lasting difference in the lives of others.â
