Lidl To Celebrate McLean Grocery Store's Grand Opening On June 1

Lidl will partner with the SHARE Food Pantry of McLean to provide food to people in need in the community. Throughout the entire grand opening weekend — from Wednesday, June 1 to Sunday, June 5 — Lidl will donate $1 to the food bank for every new myLidl member who signs up and sets the new Lidl store as their home store.

DONORS--HOW TO HELP

​

Gift cards for clients can now be purchased at McLean Giant.  Giant or Target cards are available.  Share also accepts Walmart cards bought at other locations.  

Many people want to help those in need by donating food.    Here are some options: 

 

1.  Donors can donate money online by credit card, PayPal or by mailing a check.  Share volunteers will purchase what is most needed and available.  Click here to go to DONATE page.

 

2.   Grocery Gift Cards can be left at the McLean Giant front desk for pick up by Share. 

​

3.   Purchase Share's most needed items at this website:  https://www.myregistry.com/organization/share-of-mclean-mclean-va/2380279   

Deliveries are sent directly to a safe location where they are loaded into a Share food truck.  

  

3.   Food items can be dropped in the outdoor sheds at the McLean Baptist Church.   Our volunteers are not continuously present at the Mclean Baptist Church to accept deliveries for Share but they do empty the sheds daily.    For large donations, contact sharevolunteers1367@gmail.com to arrange a drop off time.   Click here for a list of Share's Most Needed Items.

 

4.    The Redeemer Lutheran Church located at 1545 Chain Bridge Dr, McLean, Va., accepts donations of non-perishable food and personal hygiene items only Monday-Friday 9am-3pm.  Come to the office and ring the doorbell. (The office is on the Westmoreland side of the church, not the front doors and not the playground side).  Please only bring items if you are in good health.   They cannot accept clothing, toys or household items.
