DBC Radio Myrtle Beach and Food Lion Feeds Host 23rd Annual Marathon for Meals

At the Food Lion located at 38th Avenue North in Myrtle Beach.

DBC Radio Myrtle Beach and Food Lion Feeds are issuing a call to action as they wrap up the 23rd Annual Marathon for Meals, the Grand Strand’s longest-running media-driven charity focused on locals feeding locals.

The week-long food drive concludes Friday, Nov. 21st at the Food Lion located at 38th Avenue North in Myrtle Beach, where stations will be broadcasting live today and tomorrow from 9 AM to 6 PM.

This year, the community effort is more critical than ever. With many families facing increased need, Marathon for Meals aims to fill the Hope Happens Here Trailer with non-perishable foods and hygiene products to support Helping Hand of Myrtle Beach and the Community Kitchen of Myrtle Beach.
In past years, the event has collected over 15,000 pounds of food. This year, organizers are raising the bar with a goal of 20,000 pounds to help families struggling through one of the toughest holiday seasons our area has seen in years.
