Wildhorse Resort & Casino hosted a canned food drive to benefit St. Mary’s Outreach during the Hunger Games: Mockingjay 2 movie premier.
The popular series debuted its latest edition at the Wildhorse Cineplex Nov. 18. Guests were encouraged to bring canned food in exchange for popcorn and a soft drink. In total, 619 pounds of canned food was donated to St. Mary’s.
“With the holidays quickly approaching, Wildhorse felt it was a great tie to be able to donate food to one of our local food banks while celebrating the release of the much anticipated Hunger Games movie,” said Tiah DeGrofft, community relations director for Wildhorse. “We are grateful that our guests responded so positively to the event and helped to make it highly successful for St. Mary’s Outreach.”
