2025 Celebrity Bagging Volunteer Results

In 2025, a total of 6 Food City locations hosted Celebrity Bagging within our communities. 192 volunteers filled 268 volunteer time slots.

*This does not include Food City locations managed by other United Way offices, so the corporate-wide impact is even greater!

We’re rolling out the red carpet for our local celebrities in partnership with Food Cities across the region for Celebrity Bagging. We’d be honored to have you join us!

On Tuesday, November 24th, you’ll have the opportunity to connect with shoppers, share a smile, and help collect donations for United Way of East TN Highlands’ annual campaign. Every tip you earn will directly support programs that strengthen health, financial stability, and education for a more resilient community.

Come join us for one hour at one of the listed Food City locations and bring your best smile and a few jokes! This event is all about fun and giving back. Sign up today and help us make a cornucop-ious amount of blessings for families across the region.
