Meijer names winners of holiday contest

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Two Feeding America food banks and a Macomb County, Mich., resident were named winners of Meijer's "Get Gifted" online holiday contest.

The retailer said it donated $10,000 to Gleaners Community Food Bank and Forgotten Harvest last week and named Vickie Spokes its grand prize winner of $10,000 in Meijer gift cards.

"While we are always pleased when our customers engage with our brand online, it's especially satisfying when the end result provides a benefit to such a worthy cause," Meijer chief marketing officer Kevin Brown said. "Food giving continues to be a focus at Meijer, and we appreciate our customers joining us in this effort."
