Meals with a Mission to benefit charitable causes

December 15, 2009 – Hiller’s Markets helps CANTER and the Children’s ToothFairy Foundation with two dishes in seventh round of prepared foods with a purpose.

It’s time for another charity to benefit from prepared foods sales at Hiller’s Markets. Starting Dec. 15th, two new dishes in all seven Hiller’s prepared foods departments will offer shoppers good food for a good cause.

For the next two weeks, you will find Robbie Timmons’ turkey meatloaf and Paula Tutman’s shepherd’s pie in our prepared foods departments – and all profits from sales of teh two dishes will help the CANTER and Children’s ToothFairy Foundation.

Both dishes will benefit their causes through January 1st.

In an economy where prepared foods are garnering more attention than restaurant meals, Good Deeds in the Making was created by Hiller’s Markets as a way to inspire consumers to purchase high-quality, ready-to-eat meals while feeling good about contributing to worthy local causes.

All profits from sales of these dishes go to local charities chosen by the dish honorees. This is the sixth round of the program, which was created in September and will continue into the new year.
