Several area church congregations and an Ashburn gaming shop are holding creative food drives Dec. 16 to benefit Loudoun Hunger Relief.
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Ashburn, Leesburg and western Loudoun are simultaneously holding a drive-through food drive at three locations from 9 to 10 a.m. Dec. 16.
Their goal is to bring in much needed milk and eggs to the food pantry, according to Michelle Boswell, one of the organizers. “Hopefully, we can make a small dent in the need.”

Another food drive is planned at Huzzah Hobby in Ashburn. The all-day gaming event—the Foodmachine 40K Doubles Tournament—runs from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Dec. 16 at the store, located at 44927 George Washington Blvd.
Participants enter the tournament by donating cans of food; one can of protein for one ticket, three cans of vegetable for a ticket, or they can pay cash to enter. In addition to games, there will be a raffle and prizes, according to Acting Assistant Manager Austin Palatt.
