Proctor & Gamble sponsored autograph signing outings with Washington Capitals right winger Tom Wilson at two D.C. area Giant Food stores last month. Together, the two sessions - at the company’s Wisconsin Avenue and O Street stores - drew more than 800 Caps fans hoping for an autograph. This photo, taken at the O Street store, features (l-r) Lee Stacey, Monumental Sports; Daniel Wolk, Jerome DeBrew, Tanya Viola and Naviona Wise, Giant Food; Wilson; and Donnie Walker, Giant Food.
Last month, Safeway Eastern started its second annual “Kick Hunger” campaign with supermarket scavenger hunts in both Baltimore and Washington area stores. At the retailer’s Canton location in Baltimore, participants included (l-r) Keenan Harrell and Poe of the Baltimore Ravens; Amy Chase, Maryland Food Bank; WBAL NewsRadio’s Bryan Mehman; Ashley Hinson and Andre Hepkins, WBAL-TV news anchors; and Justin Shlegel, host of the 98 Rock Morning Show. Three carts of groceries were collected during the hunt, and 474 pounds of food was donated to the Maryland Food Bank.
At the Georgetown store in Washington, DC, Washington Redskins tight end Vernon Davis (r), joined here by Safeway’s Beth Goldberg, competed against Adriana Hopkins and Kidd O’Shea of WJLA-TV, filling their shopping baskets with food bank wish list items that were donated to the Capital Area Food Bank.
