The 2021 Legal Feeding Frenzy is Almost Here!
By Erin Ball
Due to COVID-19, the NCBA YLD Legal Feeding Frenzy has decided not to host an in-person kickoff event this year. While we are disappointed that we cannot all come together face-to-face, we are excited for the opportunity to bring everyone together virtually for a friendly, competitive kickoff for #LFF2021!
Join us on February 26, 2021, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and help us spread the word about food insecurity in North Carolina. Teams that choose to participate will have 12 additional hours to fundraise online and get ahead of their competitors. Throughout the day, Attorney General Josh Stein, FTC Executive Director Mike Darrow, local food banks and members of the NCBA will be livestreaming updates and shoutouts across various social media platforms.
In order to participate, teams must pre-register at https://nclegalfeedingfrenzy.com/legal-feeding-frenzy-team-application/. Registration will open February 19, 2021, at 8 a.m.
The following bonus pounds will be awarded:
- 1,000 bonus pounds to teams that early register (before March 1, 2021).
- 5,000 bonus pounds to teams that raise $1,000 or more through online donations on February 26, 2021.
- 1,000 bonus pounds to teams that post or share information about #LFF2021 and/or food insecurity in North Carolina on social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. on February 26*.
*To receive credit, you must email a screenshot of your post, with the timestamp, to [email protected].
