“The Office of the Attorney General is proud to be part of the long-standing tradition of the Legal Food Frenzy. I am continually impressed, though not surprised, by the generosity of Virginia’s legal community,” Attorney General Jason Miyares said. “This year, we raised nearly $300,000, providing 1.2 million meals for food banks across the state. Our food banks do incredible work to help prevent anyone from going to sleep hungry, especially during the summer months when children are out of school. My heartfelt thanks to all the organizers for their leadership and to all participants for their enthusiastic involvement, and I look forward to next year’s Legal Food Frenzy!”
The Legal Food Frenzy raised nearly $300,000 this year, which will provide more than 1.2 million meals for Virginians. Approximately 25 million pounds of food has been raised in the last 18 years through the charitable cause.
