BlueCross Foundation providing $250,000 to Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. The BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee Foundation is giving $250,000 to Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee to help meet the needs of community members affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. This gift provides additional support following the $500,000 the foundation awarded to Second Harvest in March.
Food banks across the state have been facing increased demand since the onset of the
pandemic, as many Tennesseans turn to them for support. While many organizations have been able to sustain operations throughout 2020, donations are leveling off and the beginning of 2021 remains uncertain.

It’s been a gruelling year for grocery. But despite the countless challenges of 2020, the food and drink industry stepped up to keep shelves stocked and the nation fed throughout the pandemic. We celebrated many of these achievements in our Grocer Gold Awards earlier this year – when we also asked industry bosses to reflect on the pandemic and the industry’s response. Here’s what they had to say.
Roger Burnley, CEO, Asda
“Grocery industry workers have been heroes in this pandemic, keeping the country fed amidst the most challenging conditions I’ve ever seen. In retail, our colleagues have brilliantly taken in their stride the complexities of different lockdown restrictions in different parts of the UK, while continuing to serve our customers and provide support for the hardest hit in our communities, and I’m hugely proud of how all our managers have led their teams through the crisis.”

VALLADOLID, Spain (Reuters) - Barcelona turned on the style to thrash Real Valladolid 3-0 away in La Liga on Tuesday as Lionel Messi scored his 644th goal to surpass Pele as the all-time record scorer for a single club.
Messi also finally got his first assist of the season when he picked out defender Clement Lenglet with a splendid cross and the Frenchman rose to head Barca in front after 21 minutes.
