The Markets by Tiger and the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank have joined forces for an August Round Up Campaign where customers can support the food bank at all ten Market by Tiger locations. Customers can simply round up their in-store purchase all month long or donate points through their Market Rewards app to support the BRAFB (Blue Ridge Area Food Bank). As part of the campaign, BRAFB representatives will be hopping on the register at Market locations twice during the month to engage with customers about their mission.
