News: True Spirit of Competition and Community - Upper Loudoun Youth Football Teams Stock Local Food Pantry

Purcellville (Sept. 30, 2010) - There is winning on the field and then there is winning off the field. The Upper Loudoun Youth Footbal League gives us a great example of a spirit of competition that benefits the community as teams in the league have raced each other to donate the most food to local food pantry, the Tree of Life.

A harsh economy left the food pantry's shelves nearly empty after the summer but the players and parents in the football league have already given almost 10,000 pounds of food -- reaching their season goal of giving in just three weeks. And they aren't stopping now.
