COLUMBIA, S.C. –
BI-LO, Coca-Cola and Harvest Hope Food Bank are teaming up this season to help wipe out hunger in South Carolina at Gamecock football games this fall. BI-LO and Coca-Cola are donating 100 food items for each Gamecock touchdown this season to the Harvest Hope Food Bank, and Gamecock fans can get in on the action this weekend at the Georgia game.

This Saturday, any Gamecock fan that brings a canned or boxed food item to the Gamecock Village across from Williams-Brice Stadium or to the Bojangles on Bluff Road will receive a free Coca-Cola two-liter coupon, compliments of Coca-Cola and BI-LO. All donations will go directly to the Harvest Hope Food Bank.

Harvest Home Food Bank operates in 20 counties in South Carolina. Last year, 19 million pounds of food was distributed by the network across the state.
