RC Willey to Hold Second Annual Great Pumpkin Giveaway
Families invited to visit any RC Willey Store on October 20, and pick up a free Halloween pumpkin while supplies last
SALT LAKE CITY – Oct. 16, 2014 – RC Willey, one of America’s top home furnishing retailers, is inviting families to visit any of its locations in Utah on Monday, Oct. 20, to pick up a free pumpkin. Thousands of pumpkins will be available at every store for the retailer’s Great Pumpkin Give Away while supplies last.
At the same time, RC Willey is kicking off its annual food donation drive in Utah. The furniture retailer is inviting the community to bring non-perishable food items to any RC Willey location on Oct. 20 and throughout December. One hundred percent of the food collected will be donated to the Utah Food Bank.
Dave Cook, vice president of RC Willey, proudly moonlights as a pumpkin farmer in Syracuse, Utah. Cook created the pumpkin giveaway in 2013 when he and other local farmers had thousands of pumpkins left over after grocers had their pick from the harvest. He made them available at the Syracuse store. This year, the furniture retailer expanded the Great Pumpkin Give Away to all of its stores.
“All of our stores look forward to welcoming neighbors and friends who drop by RC Willey for a free Halloween pumpkin during the Great Pumpkin Giveaway,” said Cook. “And this year we’re also welcoming donations of canned goods that will be distributed to families who are struggling to make ends meet. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
